    silicone hose size

    Just bought a set of silicone hoses from the UK for a 300 tdi
    good hoses, UK made nice quality and cheaper than most exept that the elbow and straight piece for the lower intercooler intlet are the same size as the top hose, larger ID than original, they will clamp up ok.
    Do other makers such as Allisport or SFS etc supply same size ID hose or hose of the correct size? those of you that sell kits or have imported hoses I'm interested to know

    Thanks

    These were less than $150 landed to my front door, cheaper than buying standard rubber ones from a well known supplier in Blackburn of unknown quality and landed to my front door and $100 less than some of the other brands I've seen around

    the elbow and straight piece should be 50mm ID and these are off the shelf sizes, nothing special unlike the top hose.

    Slight Hijack - where can you get silicone hoses cheaply? I bought some heater-sized silicone hoses from QLD Diesel Spares a few years ago - their prices were good, but what about larger sizes?

    Why don't people buy Aluminium or stainless elbows, and just use short sections of silicone as joiners? Surely that would work out cheaper given the price of silicone hose?
