for any of you who have experienced the common turbo to intercooler hose perishing/bursting, ive found a solution
took mine off, and using a micrometer, measured internal and external dimensions, and lengths, and have ordered and received a silicone equivalent, which is fluoro lined, making it oil and fuel proof. fitting tomo, it is slightly longer than standard, so when i remove old one, will cut down the new one to match.
here it is if anyone wants to invest:
