Coupla updates (see pic below):
  • They are gonna make the smaller hoses for the radiator overflow tank.
  • They are gonna see if they have, or can make a replacement for the couplers attached to my throttle bodies.
  • My contact at Samco Sport might register here so that he can converse with you guys directly. He's in the UK.

Talking

More news!!!

I asked for an ETA on the hoses coming to market and here's his reply:

"We can produce them now upon people ordering them through our distributors in the U.S; it will only be the two hoses at the moment with the other two later as a separate ancillary kit.

The Samco Part Number is TCS-384/C with a retail of $120.69, the stainless hose clamps are extra and don’t come with the hose."

I don't think you need to purchase the hose clamps cause you can either re-use the OEM ones (if they are big enough) or buy some from your local auto shop.

Hey guys, I got this dealer info from my Samco Sport guy.

Options Auto Salon
California
USA
tel. 001 800 678 2886 (USA/Canada)
tel. +001 626 812 7220 (International)
fax. 001 626 812 7221
www.optionsauto.com/samco

He said:
"Just quote the Samco part number I gave you to them, they won’t have it in stock yet but will be able to get it."

I guess anyone who sells Samco hoses can order them now.

Do we have any sponsors on here that wants to do a group buy???

I'm working with him on the other two hoses now, so it's gonna be about a month I would guess. We'll see how fast they can knock it out.

Thanks, I was looking for a panel, but most are made for '03-06s.

I was at a Greddy "garage sale" and those aluminum air diversion panels were like $20-30, but they told me it wouldn't fit an '07.

Yeah, good thing I got carbon fiber cause I had to widen a notched section on the driver's side with my trusty hacksaw.
