Rob,
im sticking with mfi for now as im skint and just want to get her on the road, she needed quite a bit of welding and alot of other stuff for mot,

so i need a set of samco hoses u reckon? do they make much difference?
also with the turbo im a bit short on cash so the original will have to do for mow

thanks for all replies!
