Joe, we have a problem... my Lower Samco Hose did not by all means, fit. I tried a huge variations of how to put them, but the lower hose, is just too short and out of place. I even thought I used the wrong hose in the wrong place, EEERRRRR, WRONG! The other one fitted perfectly on the upper side. Guys... Samco has a serious problem with this design. I even saw another guy here had the same problem and I never took that into account. Dang, no worry, the Bling factor is HIGH and the upper hose looks AWSOME!!! It's the gloss that gets me. I don't even care about the lower hose, since nobody even notice it.

You probably were sold the V1 Samcos by accident......V2s fit flawlessly. We have sold tons of them and Joe helped Samco USA redesign them.

I have an EGT question, I just installed it, and I'm N/A. The thing is that my numbers seem to be way lower than normal.

idle: 350-400F
cruising speeds: 750-800F
WOT hard: 1100-1200

are this alright? I also have a Valve Breather. My EGT sensor is right after the nuts on the collector area.

It's the Megan one. Isn't Megan an American Company? Thus uses F? I'll go check.

Eric, you have a version one set. I designed the version 2 set and that's all we sell on Dezod.com. All of our sold kits since the V.2 release are version 2. Here's a pic of the lower hose, using the same angle pic as you...

Hope this clears it all up for you...

No worries, I fixed that 2 months ago. I was actually worried about my EGTs. Do you have any idea about them? Also, it's Eddie, not Eric. :D
