Intercooler Hose

[mctwistuk]

Ok whilst we changed some of the coolant hoses last night we had the intercooler off and we discovered that the red 90degree hose is in not very good condition.

I would like to change it and considered just going standard again as I can't seem to find a suitable one in silicon that doesn't come as part of a kit.

So does anyone know where I can get a standard one online or get a silicon one that isn't part of a kit. eBay do have silicon ones that seem to be 4 layers but have been advised that it really needs to be 5ply minimum.

Thanks

Chris

In your terms, Silver thing with riffles and STi logo, to the red metal tubes in the centre of the engine bay.

If you phone samco direct, they'll advise you or quite possibly sell you the part.
