Shannon,


I am NOT being a smart butt here, Just ignorant..http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Ermm.gif


What would the advantage be to using these hoses? Would they be for all the hoses in the engine compartment?


Radiator, heater, etc





Mike

Yes they would be for the boost hoses, radiator hoses, heater hoses,





the benefits: these hoses can withstand temperatures of -76 to well over 428 degrees. they also have excellent resistance to UV, water, ozone and oxygen. the boost hoses conform and seal better thus eliminating leaks. these hoses will not blow off like the factory hoses do. and they also add that "finished" look to the engine compartment.

I wonder how many people have bown their stock intercooler lines off? i can only think of one... they look neat... are they baby blue???

I'll take a set! Too damned sexy to pass up!http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Evil Smile.gif


Had blue hoses on my 88 gasser, I think they were BFG. NEVER had a hose problem after installing them.

they come in blue, red, yellow, black, purple, and green (but its like a neon green)





Shan

The only time I've heard of having problems with the turbo hose, was when a clamp came undone or broke. My neighbor had a problem with his motorhome going to Texas, broken clamp. He said it was miserable to drive without the turbo, got a clamp at a truck stop and that solved the problem. Then the guy in the office next to me was on a trip to Florida with the high school band. A brand new Greyhound bus with only about 5000 miles on it had a clamp on the turbo that apparently came loose. He said that particular bus couldn't keep up with the others in the group and kept falling back. When they stopped for lunch the drivers were looking over the busses and found it, fixed it and had no other problems.

I'd be interested if the price is reasonable.

Sounds like a great idea, but will there be warranty issues? http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Confused.gif

What about A price? I might be interested.

I dont have a price yet. the manufacturer just wanted me to get a number of people that would be interested.








Shannon

I would be interested. What would be even cooler is to replace the shoddy looking metal tubes we have now with some sweet looking polished stainless tubes.


Either way, the stockers look like crap.

Wonder if we could get them chromed?

I would be interested in a set in red. Will he make in all available colors or do they need specific quantities in each color?

i am thinking they would make them in all the colors.

I'm interested... http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Approve.gif

Sounds good depending on $$$$.

Sounds great!! But as usual it depends on the $$$.


And THANKS for answering my ignorant question..http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Wacko.gif





Mike

No problem, as soon as i can get some pricing i will let you guys know.








Shannon

I'm interested. I ran these in my last truck (Z-71) and they were great. They lasted 10 years in the hot AZ desert without any issues, even when having the R&R them.

sounds good if the price is reasonable





Craig

I'm in for a set if the $$$ are right! http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif

No offense, but I need to ask?
<UL>
<LI>are they compatible with our anti-freeze</LI>
<LI>are they made in the U.S.A.</LI>[/list]


Thanks

they are compatable with the anti freeze,


they are made in england

I'd take some RED ones if it wont cost an arm and leg!http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Confused.gif AkDually61

I'd take some blue ones, if they don't cost a small fortune.

I'd take a set of red ones is the price was right.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Approve.gif

Ok great , I will talk to the manufacturer next week and will let you guys know. just so you know this may take a few months for them to do. I have to get a set of the factory hoses and send to them.





Thanks
Shan

I want a red set.

Please Post a approx. Price (or at least in the ballpark). I'd be intested, again if they arn't an arm and a leg.

Couple fingers and toes would be ok ....

Those look like hoses made by http://www.samcosport.com/ (located in the <st1:country-region><st1:place>UK</st1:place></st1:country-region>). They made a lot of stuff for Audi and VW applications. I actually had a set of replacement Intercooler/boost pipes for my VW GTI 1.8T. Very nice product that helped hold higher boost pressures (like 1 to 2 psi average from many who installed them on their cars). I unfortunately needed the money so I couldn't hold onto them and sold them. If I remember correctly the hoses (or at least some of the applications) are hand made.

Oh... I know, first post, but I've been reading awhile. Just wish I made enough to get a 2500HD Crew w/ D/A combo. Once day, right?
