WTB: 07 STi intercooler hose kit, or POSSIBLY a FMIC (Private and/or Vendors?)
I'm looking to upgrade the stock STi y-pipe, hoses, and claps (as well as all other hardware).
My current turbo inlet hose is cracked and I'd like to replace the Y pipe all together with an aftermarket one, like with a SAMCO hose kit or something. I might consider a stock Y-pipe, hoses, and hardware if it's in BRAND NEW or close to brand new condition 2007 STi i/c hardware kit which includes the ypipe, clamps, etc.
If there's an aftermarket kit that can outperform the stock STi kit (with keeping the stock STi i/c) I'd like to purchase something like that, any vendors have anything like this?
On the other side of the spectrum, I was thinking of the possibility of doing a FMIC if there was a simple kit available that could be put onto the 2007 front bumper without major modifications and if sold at a good price, so if you have a FMIC kit (has to be 100% complete with hoses AND clamps, everything to make it work) I might be considering it as an alternative to just fixing my TMIC problem.
I'd rather spend my money on other mods but this is something that needs to be fixed ASAP because I can't stand driving around with a boost leak that is this horrible.
Can someone please help me out? I'm in dire need of a new hose kit because mine is 100% done and needs to be replaced in order for me to be able to drive around without having a massive boost leak.

I went with the Smaco hose kit. You mean the turbo outlet is cracked right? The inlet connects to the intake. The funny red elbow that goes from the y-pipe to the turbo has a tendency to get chewed up from the hose clamps.
I think I may have an extra elbow as well.
