The silicone couplers are terrible. They aren't braided so under high pressure they expand and literally blow a hole in the side.

That kit mate is definately for inlet each side.. you would have to hack it apart to make it fit, and buy more joiners..

My silicone couplers are similar and have withstood 30psi...

You need to find a pic of a THS intercooler before fitting to get an idea of what pipes you need..

You going to keep OEM outlet pipe from turbo yeah with 007p on and that?

I think this kit would need alot of bodging here and there to fit and operate fully!  :undecided:

But then again we all know daz likes a challenge  :wink:
