Default Hey ! You have coloured hosing :(

Hello,
I've seen several under-bonnet shots of users cars on here with nice blue silicon hosing. My hosing mostly from boostsolenoid-inlet-Boost gaugeT etc looks really tatty. Where is the best place to buy hosing preferably in blue. I am after a roll of small diameter hose to start with. Small enough obviously to fit between inlet and boost solenoid etc etc.
Thanks

Are Samco the best as i know people have had them collapse under high boost? are there alternatives or are they simply really high power engines?

Thanks Chris.

samco inlet hose used to be 3 ply and would collapse under fairly high boost.
now they are 4 ply and do not.

imho, the coolant hoses are tarty and offer no real benefit, I wish I had spent the money elsewhere
