Ive asked about a year ago, whats the exact size of the intercooler hoses, if im right Pete sent them to me, but god knows what i did with em. Need to get them some time this week. If you could give those to me again Pete, I would appreciate it. If not, someone else here that has them. Thanks!

I had the same question about 2 weeks ago and this is what pete told me

Little one: 2" ID, 2.20" long

Big one: 2.4 ID, 2.7" long

Hope this helped

I'm considering these sizes, as I'm thinking about upgrading my hoses (they are old and showing it; good time to replace before they give out). Thus my question: 2" is easy to find, but I can only find it 3" length. Doable? Also, I find a lot of 2.5" not 2.4". Surely they will stretch enough for that. For the latter, I assume 3" will be not much difference from teh 2.7".

...or am I being too precise? Seems like one could just trim the silicone straight couplers down to whatever length one needs.

yes, you can trim the silicone couplers easily to fit ;
and that 2.5" ID will fit a 2.4" just fine

are the OE hoses still available ?

I doubt it. I haven't ever confirmed that they are unavailable though. I was just planning on going with the silicone. Thanks!
