A link to buy a kit or whatever he has haha.

Any hardware store with have them

**nawarkk** · 07-26-2011

They have different sizes for different superchargers. A bunch of options you need to look over. I'd do some more research.

you cannot run those for the coolant going through the motor, they will not hold up.

Since GTP's really only come with GIII's and GV's id say the research for what i need is minimum.

Actually they do make clear ones for the motor Killerglass

I'm saying there are different size intercoolers also. All depends on what you want performance wise and how far you're going to take the car.

Im pretty sure if you (we) looked around we can find an alternative to a $120.00 hose pipe.

Look into the heat rating of those hoses. Then think about your underhood temps vs the coolant temp. Most clear hose is not rated for the temps we'd see underhood.
