I bought Wagner ones to go with the intercoolers.

I like the roose motorsport hoses. If you have Wagner intercoolers though, ask him to make the lowers slightly longer

I ended up going with the do88 hoses. Would have preferred the Wagners since I have their Intercoolers but they wanted as much for shipping as the cost of the hoses. Why would I pay $245 for shipping to N. America?

FWIW I didn't like the Wagner hoses at all. You do need "something" with the wagner intercoolers that have slightly longers legs on the hoses, but aside from that, I actually thought the OEM hoses were better. And the roose ones I have tick both boxes. Not familiar with your do88 ones, sadly.
