Hi guys,

Just curious whether there is any benefits to be gain here with after market hoses on a cdti?

Cheers

Hi Simon, I've not heard of anyone doing this. Other than appearance-wise I can't imagine much benefit, although the hoses are mostly hidden on these engines.

Thanks Jon,

Just wondered if the pipe was more rigid and better sealed would more of the boost reach the engine?

Regards

I wouldn't bother with this mate.. The only real mod I've seen working on this to achieve better cooling is to have the existing intercooler reworked by a radiator specialist.
