Did you buy a whole kit then with the Y pipe?.Whats confusing is there is a good few couplers on ebay with sizes ranging from 57mm up to 102mm for the Subaru I thought the intercooler to throttle body hose was the same size as other models

have a quick look at me build thread to see what i bought in the mishimoto kit.

https://www.scoobynet.com/1009543-th...freshed-3.html

The only reason i know it is 80 mm(on the newage TMIC) is because i was going to replace just that hose. But when a brand new kit (inc Y hoses) for £10 unopened i had to jump at the chance.

If in doubt take it off and measure it.

If it's the throttle body hose you're looking at samco do two of them. One is known as an extreme and a lot shorter.

They're between £10 - £15 and you can get the both from merlin motorsport based as castle coombe. But both as all fmic are differently shaped and send one back after you've had a test fit.

Rik. Yes, it's the length that differs. As for the request above give merlin a call. They also do the solid joiner pipes as well.

If not, bob@aztec, Alyn as performance or advanced automotives in Bristol
