One of my intercooler hoses has split today :( but i was thinking of upgrading them anyway as i should be recieving a gas flowed intercooler in the near future. So does anyone have any recommendations for some sturdy efficient intercooler piping for the L series? What make and where can i get it from?

no aftermarket pipes available, could always contact samco or sfs and see if they can make you some, sure there'd be interest once they had them available

They will find your nearest XPart service centre which is also an MGR parts outlet!

If anyone can locate one... PNH101140 please let me know... my repair isn't holding, so I need one ASAP....

XPART / DEALERS have none, it's on back-order.....

just quickly called my local specialists and all have said noone makes them its a dealer only part :(

i'd give samco/sfs a call and see if they can make one for you, need be an exhaust place will be able to make you a metal one but you'd need some samco to make the joints

Just make one up samco style, I'm sure it'll last longer.

have either of you contacted SFS, they calim to make bespoke stuff, with the number of ZR's and the lack of availability i should imnagine they'd want to get their hands on a car and make a set of hoses.

if noone has would anyone like me to do it?

Andburg, when you say would anyone like me to do it are you reffering to making the hose, or contacting SFS about it?
