Question

Before I buy a Dawes and raise my boost, should I fit new intercooler hoses - If so, where from (to buy I mean)

No one seems to have any SAMCOs in

Mark - uk98 Turbo

Yeah, if you're running the standard cruddy plastic I/C pipe, it's worth exchanging for the Samco one.

The Samco flows better, and doesn't suffer the standard part's tendency to split under pressure.

As for getting hold of one, have you tried here?

Question

I take it that you can recommend them ?

I'll give them a ring tomorrow to see if they have any in stock.

Cheers,

Mark

Thumbs up

I blew two intercooler-turbo hoses on my MY98, not cheap, Samco hoses from Graham Goode did the trick.

Got mine form rally design but I ordered the wrong ones. They were changed within 2 days. Fantastic service and cheaper than most other places.
