Silicone hose sizing
Hey folks I'm trying to get a silicone hose for between the two parts of my standard dp inlet manifold. The sizes are 32 and 42mm but it seems no one makes a 42-32mm reducer.
My question is can I +/- 1 or 2 mm and still get a good tight fit that won't leak under boost?

Is this what you are looking for??

I put these on my intake when I blew the stock silicon ones at 13.34 lbs. of boost. I haven't had a chance to try them yet but they are tough.
They were really really tight and you need some lube to get them on but they will never leak.

Re: Silicone hose sizing
What's it cost to ship to the UK?
They would fit into a fairly small package I would think.
PM me an address or a close area and I could check at the post office for ya.... It wouldn't be more than 3 lbs. I would think.

Re: Silicone hose sizing
Had to drop something else at the P.O. so I asked....... from my house to Ipswich is anywhere from$48.40 in 6-10 days
to $17.88 in 10 to 20 days......if it weighed under two lbs.
Currency exchange would be the problem both you to me and UK to American....plus it would have to be shipped to me first if he won't ship direct to you.
Can't remember what he charged me for shipping but I think it was around $10.00.
Shipping has gone up a bit in the U.S. at the P.O. at least.
