Turbo Hoses? Good deal or not?

[jspeed86]

Hey Guys, as some of you know I am restoring a 86' T-type and I am going through everything. I found a Turbo intake hose (long) and a Turbo Hose and Clamps kit. If you could, check out the ebay links and let me know if these are good prices or not? If not, where can I go to get these items for cheap.

Also, where can I get a good Air Intake system that won't break the bank. I was thinking about just getting a Conical filter from K&N. Any suggestions or links? Thanks for any help.

getting turbo hoses from anywhere else is usually about $3.50-$4 an inch. im assuming you are trying to restore it to a totally original appearance?

Those items on Ebay are original GM items that came on the Buick.
Are you wanting to keep the car original & stock looking?
If so, then these are the items that you want. His pricing is about what GM gets for them, more or less.

The original turbo to intercooler and uppipe to dog house hose kit are normally replaced by people because the hoses are thin and blow off easy.
Any of the vendors on the TB site sells pipes, hoses and air filter for our cars. I suggest that you pick anyone of them and give them a call.

Thanks for the Info. I will prob. look into getting those replaced with something better.

When I order the Turbo (GT3255E) from Mike Licht (Full Throttle), hopefully he will have something good.
