Bugger.  So I wonder if i would be stuffed the the turbo discharge & intercooler pipe too?

The hoses taper to fit into the standard turbo discharge & throttle body pipe on a standard car so it should work with the "uprated" pipes as well.

Sorry to be a PITA but you confused me there  :ashamed:

Although the outlet pipes on the APR IC is larger than standard and needs the bespoke hoses, at the other end of each of the 2 hoses the couplers mates up to the standard turbo discharge & throttle body pipes.

The "uprated"  turbo discharge & throttle body pipes should have the same coupler size as standard so they should work with the APR IC hoses.

Hope that makes it clearer.

Okidoke, that is clearer to me Thanks  :happy2:  

Want a Braille battery for your discharge hose?  :wink:  If not I will have to sell it and pay you as Ive wanted it for a while just put off by the need for machining, dont want it being inferior to original design
