QuoteI consider the silicon ones last resort at this point. Why? Silicone is generally a better material for automotive hoses than rubber.
My recommendation would be to add an intercooler and make that piece unnecessary.
That said, I have one from an MF in fine condition that I'd be willing to sell for $25 shipped in the continental US. I have no interest in a trade for the ECO piece.
