Turbo Hoses
« on: 07 October 2010, 13:57 »
Hi Guys,

The lower turbo hose has given up on me and I wana replace all the turbo hoses with Samco style ones but they only do them for a 130BHP Diesel and mine is the 150BHP Diesel.

Does anyone know of anywhere I can get some high quality hoses from????

Cheers lads

You wont get any more noticcable power gains from silcone hoses,  they just improve reliablitly on a tuned up car as they wont fold under load like some stock hoses do.

if you have a 150 why would you change the intercooler ? if you want power gains upgrading your turbo would be the way to go

Agree

The 150 intercooler is actually a very efficient design for a standard piece of kit  :smiley:
