If I am not mistaken, Samco's are made from high quality Silicon, if you can get the cheap nasties also made out of the same grade of silicon then you are onto a winner. If they have, say, a 20% silicon makeup then I would stare clear.J wrote:the ones in the uk pics are real samco hoses which cost quite allot. around 150 for the radiator house from a aus. website.
you can get generic blue hoses ordered from autobarn. wouldnt know which is better though.
There are some good Samco clones around, unbranded though (seen them on an Evo over here, can't tell the difference and can handle insane temps).
There is a Legnum in Christchurch that uses custom made Samco "piping" for his IC, has a bunch of different bends etc made up, each connected with metal sleeves and hose clamps, very funky and thinck enough not to warp inder boost or vacuum. Being flexible, it obviously moves as the engine moves. He managed to drop underbonnet temperature too from the turbo outlet side as the silicon absorbs and holds the temp well.
