Default Comparing silicone hose kits

I've seen lots of threads on here talking about the different types/qualities of silicone hose kits available on Ebay, amongst other places. They all look very similar so its easy to see why you might just want to buy the cheapest one you can.

Well, although they do look similar in the pictures, they are not all the same.

The pictures below show two of our hoses from a Subaru kit compared with the same hose from a kit bought off Ebay. If you look closely you can see our hoses have an extra layer for greater strength, and have a high gloss finish which looks a lot nicer and is easier to keep clean. The same principle applies to all hoses, including turbo inlet pipes.

The Ebay kit was only £10 cheaper than our kit!

Ill post some pictures comparing the turbo inlet pipes later, including our new Stage 2 inlet which comes with extra reinforcement (un-squashable!!) for cars with 350bhp and above!

Yeah, but I guess without seeing them compared to better kits its difficult to know what the difference is.

We do the following for your car:

Full 10 piece coolant kit: £69.99 - £64.99 with Scoobynet discount
Stage 1 Turbo inlet pipe: £79.99 - £74.99 with Scoobynet discount
Stage 2 Turbo inlet pipe: £129.99 - £119.99 with Scoobynet discount
Vacuum hose kit £15
18 piece hose clip set for coolant kit: £15

We also do the turbo inlet pipes to fit the bigger 76mm turbo outlet, and can make them with or without the various take off's for bespoke builds.

Just to let you know we will have our Stage 2 turbo inlet pipes available at the end of this week. The extra reinforcement means they WILL NOT COLLAPSE under high boost, and have been tested on cars running 1.8 BAR of boost without any issues at all.

Scoobynet members get £10 discount so the price is reduced to £119!

If you need one with a larger 76mm turbo outlet or without any of the take off hoses then let us know and we can make one specific to your needs!

White Noise... We do a full set of intercooler pipe joiners, in black with our logo on, however they are designed to fit with the black intercooler kits we sell. There are several different intercooler kits out there so I couldn't be sure if ours would match exactly what you need.

We can get them made specifically for you, but we would need to know all the sizes & measurements you need - or the original set that wants replacing.

Sani... No the full kit includes the full coolant kit, Stage 1 inlet pipe and the vacuum hose kit. If you want the Stage 2 inlet pipe we do the full kit for £215.

chrispy... We can do you a stage 1 for £95, or a Stage 2 (unsquashable) for £135

Cheers,
Chris

£119.99 + £64.99 + £15 = 199.98£ so it's better to buy separetly or I'm missing something?

Thanks

Sorry sani, your right, with your discounts its £199 with free delivery. I forgot to take into account ALL of the Scoobynet discounts. The same package is usually £129 + £69.99 + 15 + £10 delivery = £223.99.

If anyone is after a Stage 2 inlet pipe at a special price then take a look here... Stage 2 (unsquashable) Silicone inlet pipe promotion!

Hi folks. Sorry for the delay replying. I've been away on my honeymoon for a couple of weeks and just got back!

Kimberlim... Yes, we can do you one in black. A standard one will be £95 shipped, a Stage 2 reinforced inlet will be £140 shipped.

Danny... Yes, a full kit (coolant, turbo & vacuum) will be £195 in orange (£20 extra because its a specialist colour) or an extra £45 if you want it with the Stage 2 inlet pipe. Plus £10 postage.

Big Sparks... Yes, we can do a full red kit (coolant, turbo & vacuum) for £175. If you want the Stage 2 inlet it will be £220. Plus £10 postage

Nicky. We do the full Platinum Service for £245, and the cambelt change is £175. So it will be £420 all in. We would include a free valet for you too! It will take about 6 hours in total.

Sonic... Thank you!

Thanks Sonic, that's good to hear!

Banny, We only sell the radiator hoses as either a full set or a 2 piece top and bottom set for £29.99. However we dont have the 2 piece in black at the moment. We could send you red or blue?
