Default Do samco make custom hoses?

If i sent samco my standard hoses do you think they could make something up for me and has anyone had any experience with this? i have a mk2 xr2 turbo which runs a chargecooler so the hoses are chopped etc so im needing something decent!

So the guy that set up samco now owns a company no where near the rep that samco has? That makes as much sense as a flying pig.

Give roose motorsport a call mate there spot on

there where 2 guys who worked at samco who started sfs

there first unit was next door to pts in luton

Roose hoses for me. Just provided all the individual hoses I needed instead of having to buy full kits instead.

deffo roose motorsport, they are second to none.

i live rite buy the samco factory and unless they can make a fortune off your hoses by mass producing them they just tell you they aint interested.

i use to know a fella working at samco that use to sell complete hose sets (boost,water,ancilliary) for 80 quid lol, he's now been sacked for some reason lol.
