Default and some mods, SFS hoses finally (mostly) installed

This was part of MCPaudiTT's group buy (which BTW was amazingly organized and run). I still need to install the passenger side IC hose, we ran out of time so we couldn't pull the bumper. I'm going to give it another try with the bumper on. I think I can get to that one hose clamp altho I'm a bit worried that I won't be able to get it back on.

The quality of the hoses is top notch. My expert installer (Mr Gokart3 for those that remember) thought the intake hose was even nicer than the Samco part. I'm pretty surprised how much of a difference this made to the car. These were installed after it was already cooler out so it's not just colder turbo weather, the car definitely has more oomph to it. I had been getting a flat spot in 3rd gear (between 4k and 5k) and that is now gone. Next step will be to get the Hose Techniques sampler kit and start replacing all of the other hoses I can get to.

Looks really good John. I agree that Mike (MCPaudiTT) did a fantastic job of organizing this GB.

Default Excellent! So glad to hear you are pleased with the results! Not many Intake hose buyers, and good

to hear that worked out well too. If you have more pix, I would be interested in having you e-mail them to me...

Default Any interest in a Green set? A current buyer is not keeping his car, so he may let them go for a

discount... E-mail me if interested.
