hose size Charge pipe to IC pipework

[Reuvers]

anyone that can quickly tell me what size the hose is coming off the chargepipe (front side of car) running to the plastic tubing going to intercooler? I believe its 45 degree bend?

When I search I keep finding the hose on the backside of the chargepipe running to turbo...

cheers

hey mate were did you get the elbow??cant find a red one on ebay

 

[Reuvers]

well seeing as I from the netherlands and you are from norway I doubt we'll be getting our hoses from the same place.
Personally I get all my hoses from a shop near my work, who import from abroad. QSP is the brand name

but that won't really help you. I am sure there is a company near you, or else Ebay will definately be able to supply you what you need in red.

 

[tarzan]

you dont know the prizes here in norway dude....EXPENSIVE
got my parts from uk and other contries.you dont know a good website?

 

[Reuvers]

This is where I get my hoses from, I am sure they will send to you if you order several at the same time

Personally I never really order much from UK as the shipping is ridiculously expensive. I can get parts from the far east that costs less for shipping than from the UK...
Its a shame as there are many nice parts in the UK.
