    What kit mate? All you will need extra is some hose and maybe some fittings... Won't be another $130 for that. Lucky if it's $30.

    Edit : Ah just saw the rip off kit they are selling too. For starters the "oil resistant silicone hose" they are selling in that kit won't be oil resistant. I used to wholesale this hose to companies like them a few years back. Oil is silicone's no.1 enemy. Better off with oil resistant rubber IMO. Oil will make the silicone layers made up in the hose separate from the fibre strand that holds it together.
    They've given you a list of whats in the kit, price it up from a hose place. I garuntee it will be a lot less.
    Silicone is great for water hoses, but nothing thats sold on Ebay and in most speed shops for that fact are good enough to be used for oil. Even turbo hoses. Silicone can withstand great pressures that what rubber can but when it comes in contact with oil, rubber will outlast it anyday.
    There is oil resistant silicone hose you can buy, but it costs more than the extra they are charging. Be careful!!!!
    This is where I used to work a few years ago. We sold the cheap silicone hose to compete with the garbage sold these days, and sold the real deal to most large trucking manufactuers, e.g Kenworth, also bus companies and any large company with dollars at stake.
