    I think the MAF problem may be unique to mine as I had a different colour to everyone else. It wouldn't take much to cut it slightly wonky. The other couple I've seen seem to fit fine.

    I don't know if anyone else has found the hose rubs on the air deflectors.

      Blimey,
      installed mine days after GTI international. What a difference until
      it showed up the crap o-ring. new item only lasted 2weeks. Ordered a samco
      70-60 reducer in matching colour (not blue) and other pipes. takes 8 weeks
      to make

            He could Greg but the SFS ones are blue like the Samco ones so maybe a lead time on those one, imagine it would be less lead time than the Samco.

              I got the 70-60 from SFS - in black - delivered next day. They asked me what colour I wanted - i think they had a choice.

                      HEY PAUL

                      Do you have any pics of the different colours of samco, Mines down as blue but if the purple is a deep purple then a worthy change i reckon?

                      Thanks

                        Purple is more pink than you might like - s2avant is the owner of a set. Besides - you requested Blue before on PMs & Emails so I reserved a Blue kit for you already - check your PMs for more info !
