| I'm after changing all my hoses on my Hawk Sti to red silicone ones, other than the obvious Samco ones which cost a fortune, has anybody got any others they would recommend that wont break the bank but are still decent quality. | |

| I did all the Samco ones and can confirm they cost a bloody fortune!
There's Venair, SFS and Andy Kindon told me to get ASH (Auto Silicone Hoses) for my FMIC pipework, which are decent and they always have loads in stock. |

| Be very careful of cheap silicone hoses ( the Chinese ones that companies put there own logo on) thay break down over time, just ask Drew what happened to his top hose, it deteriorated so badly you could tare it up with your fingers!
I would stick with the rubber ones or go samco for water hoses, it just isn't worth the risk IMHO. | |

| Yip I had autobahn top n bottom which nearly cost me a engine, I wouldn't use anything other than samco, Sfs or rcm hoses I know they not cheap BUT they cheaper than a engine

| I have got some 'heavyset' hoses, got them from EBAY as i need a few double quick, needed abit trimming to make them fit snug but they are generally a decent quality and price. | |
