Anyone know where I can get this turbo hose kit from, for a UK MY00? I've tried numerous companies from searching through posts, but none of them have black in stock, and are talking anywhere between 6 and 10 weeks! 
I'm not sure how long the OEM hoses will handle 17-18psi, even though they've managed so far. I don't particularly want to tempt fate. If push comes to shove, I suppose I could always get a can of black spray paint...

None of the other colours really appeal to be honest. Plus everyone seems to go for blue, so wanted to be different! Besides, I think black would look really good. The air intake certainly came up a treat with a bit of elbow grease...

Everywhere only stocks blue..
I ended up going for blue, wanted green but couldn't be ar5ed to wait.. and as I did custom intercooler pipework I didn't want to order it all in green, wait many weeks and then decide on a different route for the pipework and have to wait another few weeks.
Has enabled me to order a couple of extra bits on next day etc..

Rally design seemed to be the cheapest and can order any of the colours samco do.. but just takes a bit for samco to make them
This it is the same situation with SPS too.

Cheers for the replies guys. So, my options are...
1. Get blue.
2. Order black, wait up to 10 weeks, and pray my current hoses don't explode.
3. Turn the boost down.
Hmm, 1's a possibility, 3's got no chance, so looking like 2...!
