Silicone intercooler pipe for diesels. - Page 4

Top job guys well done. It's definitely worth changing as I replaced mine with an OEM one a few months back and it definitely made a difference. My old pipe was knackered, had lumps, bulges and the bottom was covered in grease. Done the O-rings at the same time

One question, will there be another version made for the MKII cars with the metal sensor in the middle of the pipe?

Cheers,
Rick

I've spoken to manufacturer today and told them all is good with the fitment etc.

While I was on I asked about the witness marks and it was decided its probably best if these come pre-cut for the sensor if fitted so 2 options will be available when purchasing one complete hose and the other a 2 part.
I've took some pics of the hose with and without a sensor fitted and these will be used on there website to save any confusion.

They were going to made to order with a delivery of 7-14 days after order but I advised that there was quite a few members waiting for these so they'll be doing a manufacture run so they have some stock in preparation for the initial orders so hopefully the delivery time is less.

Colour will also be an option by the first run is going to be black as a few members expressed this was there prefered colour so if your after a different colour these will be made to order with again delivery hopefully 7-14 days.

I've asked that links to the items and part numbers are supplied when ready and I'll post the links here.

Well done Wullie and thanks for all your time and efforts, I'm sure it is appreciated by many on the forum who like myself have been hoping these would become more widely available in a more cost effective way than by having them made one -off by specialist firms.

Is this a snug fit where the O rings go? I think this looks good. How much?
