That's a lot of money spent there!
Glad you've persevered with the car though dude - great to see it's back on the road
Really odd to see the original intake pipe from the intercooler was steel, rather than aluminium

Ooft that's bad that the silicone hose has split like that!
it does look like it was a bit thin...
Was it just some generic cheap unbranded silicone hose, or was it a decent one?
