Just spat tea all over the office.

£75, does that include fitting?  holy cow.  I got some blue ones thrown in with the intercooler but I fancied swapping them for red ones, don't think I'll bother.

BrumLee:
They do actually make a noticable difference, especially if your old hoses are tired. They work better as they are structurally firmer than the rubber hoses and don't distort, therefore allow greater air-flow.

Sharpshooter:
Well. I couldnt get the tyres i wanted at Billing yesterday. So i bought an Allisport full width intercooler instead. Now will they make a difference? :) :)

Range Rover Blues:
You are in the best position to judge.  I'll have to use some silicone hoses as the intercooler pipes are different on mine.  Can't wait to get it back though :twisted:

Sharpshooter:
Well. I bought an Allisport full width intercooler at billing yesterday. I fitted it in haste last night and was well pleased. I adjusted the boost preasure and the diaphragm, as per their instructions. I droveit this morning, and WOW.

But tonight, i have cleaned and waxed her, so i though i would see if i could improve it.

I actually backed the boost off a very small amount, and it hasimproved it.

So now i have a disco pulls like a train,and looks the danglies.

Smiles all round.

And yes, it was worth the money.
