Title: Halfords ducting hose
Post by: Seanl on 08 September 2011, 17:52

has anyone used the above for a cold air feed? Was just wondering if anyone knew the length as I wanna fit one to mine, down to the lower bumper vent and it doesnt state the length. My old one had a fight with the aux belt and both came of pretty battered!

Cheers!

From using it myself, I would steer well clear of it as it the biggest peace of crap ever made. It tears so easy. Your better off making it out of propper hose, there are silicone hose that you can buy and pipercross do a coverd coil hose that is good.

eBay do hose & cone kit's for £20-30, good hosing if you are after a cold intake, that I would recommend.
