I want some of these :D

Where can I get them? How much?

How hard are they to fit?

Will I need to bleed anything once I have put them on?

Cheers guys

I think everyone and there brother now sell samco hosing!!!
most of the well known suppliers stock kits custom cut for the scoobie, i know th e previous owner of my car got it fitted by his dealer in Cork (Ireland JIC), the dealer told him it was reccomended by prodrive!!! ;) AFAIK to fit the intercooler hosing nothing needs to be bled as such, but I have herad to look out for "swarf" in the hoses. Check out grahme goodes site for decent pics, but any issue of CCC, fastcar or lax bowels will have info on Samco dealers

I just ordered the Graham Goode samco intercooler kit to my MY99.. The fitting was very easy (and I'm a complete nerd when it comes to engines and tools) and was done in 20 minutes. I'm not sure if it performs better, but it sure looks cool!

POC 12 March 2002 12:18 PM

Thanks Lads, just ordered a set, will be with me tomorrow.

GGoode are a bit pricey, they want £45inc vat, I just got em for £27inc vat.....

Shop around boys :D

This is easy to do and well worth it. The Y shaped hose under the intercooler is an unbelievably bad design and the Samco smoothes evrything out as well as being stronger - incidentally, this is the only hose that Prodrive replaced on the P1's etc and they wouldn't do it for no reason. I got mine from Graham Goode.

twinny 12 March 2002 02:02 PM

I'm planning buying the water-hose kit aswell, so if you could tell me where you got the intercooler kit for £27 it would be very nice..

ptholt 12 March 2002 02:13 PM

crumbs where did you get that from poc?

ozzy 12 March 2002 03:35 PM

Yeah POC, spill the beans. You can't post that kind of answer and leave us all hangi......

Stefan

Jay m A 12 March 2002 03:40 PM

Yeah, and why no group buy? ;)

Paul, can you tell me which bits you got in the kit, and your source? although I think I can guess :) Off line if need be

Cheers

Justin

POC 12 March 2002 04:03 PM

Not the source you guys are thinking of :D

Let me get the hoses tomorrow and I will stick up the contact info for you all ;)

The price was £26.70inc VAT, but that does not include postage, which was quite expensive at £10.

I have just spoken to them and they will be willing to sort you lads out for an even cheaper price ;)

Keep you eyes peeled lads!

Paul

POC 12 March 2002 07:11 PM

Cheers Guys

I cant reveal my sources but i can get silicon hosing exactly the same as samco but without the name cheap, however i would have to shell out on tooling which could cost a few hundred, is it worth doing or should i forget it due to every man and his dog selling samco.

SimonH 12 March 2002 08:44 PM

Anyone know where I can source a replacement Y-piece pipe in aluminum?

twinny 12 March 2002 11:39 PM

I would be very interested in the water hose kit for a MY99 if you can tell me where I can get it cheaper than £104 (which GGoode charges)..

Plantie 13 March 2002 12:22 PM

I have the PPP hosing under the intercooler.... what other hoses would/could I buy??

Mark.S 13 March 2002 12:23 PM

Coolant hose kit matey!

PeterStone 14 March 2002 12:30 PM

Have just phoned Hose Direct and they only have Sti or WRX listed for intercooler hoses and are quoting £50+ for a multi-hose kit.Do these fit a uk MY99?Is the £26.70 deal for a uk model?
