silicone intercooler pipes...who uses what??
« on: 14 October 2012, 22:44 »
was gonna buy ASH ones but they are out of stock for 3 weeks  :shocked: and i dont know if i can wait that long!!!!

was only gonna use them as they arent too expensive for a 4 ply thick hose.

would it be bad if i went for a 3 ply one, if the pressure rating is at 7 bar, should be ok?

company is DPHsport

opinions please!!!!

I might go for them, I know the pressure rating looks good but don't know about quality  :undecided:
