I've seen that some people have used the Kinugawa turbo coolant lines instead of the OEM Subaru ones. I did a search and didn't see a lot of opinions on them. How do they fit and if you used them would you recommend them?
I'm in the middle of changing my timing belt and saw the OEM turbo coolant lines were in pretty bad shape.Badly rotted lines seems like its a common problem and wanted to see if there are any other options other than OEM.
Thanks,

Looking at this now actually, sent them some emails on the receipts etc. why did the work to the car? overall what was your opinion/pricing on it?
I was told it was a burnt valve. They had a local shop rebuild the heads. While they had it apart he went ahead and did the timing belt/water pump as insurance. He was a really cool guy. Not your typical "Buy it today and I'll knock $3K off it, but only for today" kind of salesman. Considering the mileage my wife and I thought it was really clean. 355/500 on here took really good care of it. I have some pics that I took of it. PM me your phone # and I will send them to you.
I called him and told him we would take it. But changed my mind when I saw the 2010 GT we did buy. It had lower mileage and I'm going to use it for a DD.

Just a heads up #355 is for sale in Hanover PA http://www.alphaautosalesonline.com/2006_Subaru_Legacy_Hanover_PA_1623302.veh . I almost bought it but decided to get a 2010 LGT instead. Overall it's in good shape. When they got it had a burnt valve. They had the heads rebuilt along with a timing belt and everything that goes fixing both.
