Samco hoses for my LC

[Deleted member 7729]

Looking at getting some Samco hoses fitted to my LC. At the moment it's standard bar Forge DV a S£ lower brace.

Is the hose upgrade worth it etc?

hi,

Its not a performance gain, i did it purely because my old hoses kept collapsing under higher boost. (after remap)

worth the money if you are wanting to increase boost in the future, if not IMO don't waste your money expensive thing just to make it look good

Revo may been down the line, but not 100% sure yet. I want it etc. but it's a case of other things require £££

personally mike, dont bother unless you go revo and then bit more as well. Its a "look good" factor i think, but i made a point of buying black hoses to look OEM as i didnt want to make it stand out too much - think in my bay i want to keep the colours (esp bright ones) to a minimum. There is as mentioned no gain from them, unless u start talking about the TIP, when people claim increase in power but only when used in conjunction with a remap/extra boost.

Looks like the money potentially going towards remap first then

Looks like i'll save more for the remap... Revo...

Well I'm getting the remap next weekend. Then saving for the 40k service and tyres after that

Then I'll be looking at the hoses again, but that's now going to be about 6 months

I would recommend the hoses especially the TIP , seemed to increase power in my standard LCR but more significantly the power was smoother afterwards and they look the muts nuts!!

I'm contemplating getting these again now after getting the remap back in November last year. Got my 40k service first though which is going to be an ouch!

I'd prob get JKM in Portsmouth to fit them.
