Exclamation OH YEAH! Hook me up with BLACK BABY

What's the time frame on the finished product? I'm prepping my car for my March 23 track event, and it would be great to have the hoses in by then!

BTW, I too will have the big a** Koyo radiator in. I hope the hose kits with the Koyo!

Keep us posted on this!

Hey Chris

I think you should limit the color choices to either one color or only a few choices at the moment. Looking at the posts, its already getting slightly out of hand between the color varieties (red, blue, black, yellow, etc.) and the colors that a purchaser may want (red OR blue...not a specific color). That will eliminate a lot of hassle for you in figuring out who gets what color when the product is ready for shipping. Limiting the inital color offering will help Thermal Flex also...unless Thermal Flex has no problem creating multiple colors right now.

Just a suggestion, not trying to bash anyone.

Thermal Flex said that they will offer the kit in Blue, Red and Black. Once the GB is set up people can specify which of those three they want.

Heath- Like i said before these are an exact match to the stock rubber hoses.......so any radiator will work with them. Even if you have relofcated your radiator due to a FMIC ALL FMIC kits use they stock hoses but usually cut them. You can do the same with these hoses.

I'd be interested for a better group buy price than $175. When Samsco sold the FD set it was only $155 retail (not group buy).

No these are replacements for the stock hoses, not covers. They are the exact same size and shape as the stock hoses, and since the stock hoses fit (with some modification) the Koyo/Fluidyne Rads the Thermal Flex hoses will too.

I should have said I didn't understand that the stock hoses were retained with the Koyo and/or Fluidyne upgrade. I realize they new silicon hoses are replacements.

Alpine I will find out tommorrow on the time it will take them to make it...then i have to set up the GB so that people can specify which of the 3 colors they want...if not I'll just have them go gloss black.
