I know that Prodrive fit them when having the Performance Pack fitted.

But are they realy needed. Should they only be fitted if running higher boost.

Prodrive replace one of the intercooler pipes not coolant.

 

Sorry Ian, I got it wrong, it is the turbo pipes that I am inquiring about, but I thought that if I'm doing one then I'll do the other at the same time.

Howdy..

No... it doesnt actually need replacing...

Its a gimic....

Why replace one... when in fact there are 3 pressurised hoses (depends on MY)

Hoses dont/wont burst (unless u really crank up the boost.. or get them really really hot).. the problem is leaking.... and fitting a silicone hose wont solve that.

Samco do kits specific for the Scoob... I have my old kit somewhere.... not using it now... *bloody typical* lol

Hi J,

Isn't there some advantage in having a smooth internal wall to the boost hoses, rather than the bellows-type flexible intercooler hoses?. Less turbulence, pressure drop etc. etc.

Cheers,

Alex
