Default Lowering radiator questions

For you that have lowered your radiator so the intake of the supercharger goes over the top.

1. Did you have to buy a new radiator coolant hose? If so, what is the part # of the store you purchased from?

2. Did you have to buy new radiator coolant lines? If so, what is the part # of the store you purchased from?

3. Are there any other parts I dont have listed to lower the radiator on an A4?

Thanks.

1. No
2. No
3. No

You can get a piece of pipe to lengthen the lower radiator hose by about 5 inches and cut 1inch off the radiator side of the upper radiator hose.

Everything else you just gently straighten out using your hands. Do not use tools on your tranny cooler or A/C lines!
