BAS Sports Silicone hose kit for Defender Puma 2.2TDCi.

As many of you know or have found out the hard way, the standard intercooler hoses fitted to modern cars can be prone to problems splitting, DE-lamination or simply a bad fit especially after a few years of daily use especially on a working 4×4.

This is also an ideal upgrade because they are prone to having the one piece rubber extruded turbo side pipe split as it rubs on the engine pulleys when under hard load or acceleration or actually blows off its connection to the intercooler or turbo.

We at BAS have addressed the hose issue once and for all by specially manufacturing a 4&5 ply hi grade silicone hoses to replace the standard weak and badly extruded versions fitted at the factory ! We have ensured during the making that the sizing is just so that they give a tight fit onto the intercooler ensuring they do not blow off in extreme use conditions when clamped correctly. 

RHD cars should cut on installation one hose end  to make it smaller in length the hose end that fits onto the turbo by approximately 15mm-20mm (see picture above…) This is to make clearance needed for the steering shaft, LHD cars do not need to make this adjustment as they can use longer hose.   Cutting can be done with a sharp Stanley Knife Blade.

Our hoses are designed and manufactured with their 5 plys to give maximum strength and withstand the boost pressure and temperatures regularly seen on the modern engine. Hose clamps where purchased seperatly or as an optional addon are non branded non OEM basic clamps.
