Is anybody out there interested in upgrading their C5 with a set of silicon hoses?

If they are I may have the solution!

Met a guy at the Autosport International Show today who manufactures and sells silicon hoses sets and it just so happens he is a recent C5 owner and also a CCCUK member! He is planning to sell a C5 silicon hose set very soon so I said I would put this posting up to see if there is any interest.

See the CCCUK website for the guys details......don't dare put them on here or PetrolTed will have my bollocks for ear rings

Yep, you are right Fran! Fancy colours

They do blue, red and most importantly YELLOW!

Probably do other colours if required.....

I will let you know the price as soon as Stuart tells me! As he has a C5 and is a CCCUK member he is using his car as the template for the kit. He said the kit should be available within a few weeks.

I've seen similar recently, a company called Samco, but they don't seem to be available any more (at least not for Vettes)... should be interesting.

Aw Geez Now there's a mental image I don't need on a Monday morning. Combined with the theme tune to The Sweeney that's going round & round in my head I'm now having a really bad day :lol:
For C5 upgrades there's an interesting turbo system on ebay at the moment.
