Happy days.... gone from 88kw to 100kw with the new engine... nothing needed to be changed but have been told by JPC to get rid of ebay radiator hoses and to put on a 16pound cap plus ditch the alloy radiator and buy a decent 2 core heavy duty Copper/Brass one.

Yeah sweet that's a pretty good result. Hopefully get the overheating issues sorted before Krissos trip. Only been JPC once but were very happy with the service and $$$. . . . Happy Dayz.

What actual brand of hoses are they though. If they are Gates or even Dayco, there will be nothing wrong with them. Sold Gates product for 18years, repped for them for two years. I would even say their quality of product is the same as OEM for 90% of their range.
