Default SAMCO!!!!!!!!!! Whats the longest you've had to wait????

Right, what the hell is the sketch with SAMCO!!!

I have now been waiting over 3 weeks for two hoses......

Now they are not special one offs or anything, a T34 to intercooler hose and a bottom rad hose - in........... BLUE - shock horror!!!!!

Surely these ones should be on the fookin shelf!!!!!!

I know Ryan's been waiting ages, but some of his are one off's.

Should have gone for roosie's again, I've had a special one off made in less time than this!!!

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!

You should have used someone reliable .

They've taken the money off my card now, so it shouldn't be long .

To be fair to the seller. Samco are notoriously slow. I was quoted 6 weeks the other day. So unless you are lucky and whoever have it in stock, you just have to wait.

Having said that the build quality/process is quite an involved one.

if the money's been taken then does that mean that my hose should be with me soon aswell?

my car's been sitting off-road for 4 months now waiting on that hose to get her up and running





ok thats a lie

I rang Roouse this morning for a turbo to metering unit hose as my samco one wouldnt fit my T3/T4 compressor housing, and it will be with me on wednesday at latest.
