    The hardest part of fitting the hoses to the car is getting to the jubilee clips if they're rusted etc.

    If you take the undertray off, the front bumper off (10 min job for both) you have decent access to the 'harder to get to' hoses. The others are easy if you take the air box out - loads of room then!

    (No, I haven't got the samcos yet either, in case anyone wondering, but the hoses have been on and off so many times now for my car even I can do it, and I'm a numpty when it comes to getting my hands dirty, cause they are like shovels and a) don't get in small places b) break thinks, like bolts, nuts, screws you name it, I broke it)

    Off the top of my head I think there are :

    Intake to turbo hose (normally your ridged 'michelin man' hose)
    Turbo to intercooler hose
    Intercooler to inlet pipe hose

    Did I miss any? I'm sure there were a couple of other hoses too, but can't remember where for. (Oh, is THAT why my car blew up *boom* )

    No more.

    Very slow.

    Needs a chip.

      Guys - the 3B kit is still at least 6 weeks away. Reason being I simply haven't had the time to pursue it with them. All my fault on that front. The Samco ABY kits are on track for next week, so I shall be getting my finger out on the 3B hoses with SFS.

      Keep the faith !

          You have to phone and ask where your order is - that is the only bad thing about them - they do it next day if you moan a bit.

            I have to order another pipe anyway so will ring them, it was 3 weeks ago when i ordered, they had loads of work to get done for the end of march/start of april , initially said it would be 5 weeks but should be able to fit them in before that

                  SFS haven't started making them yet, as I got them to hold off and wait until they had an entire set. With a bit of luck (and lots of guilt about this now) I shall light this up with SFS this week - I just need to find some time to speak to the main man there and post the rest of hoses they need...

                    Will still have to wait

                    Oh well, back to the stealers for another new one. They will start asking why it split soon!
