I'm after the solid boost pipe that runs from the turbo to the intercooler.

TIA  :y

Are the ones fitted to the BM's not the same, or be made to fit, might expanded your search somewhat.

Unlikely, as intercooler is unlikely to be in exactly the same place, given the body differences in the car...

I'd probably suggest buying new, as a 14yr old intercooler host is liable to have some give in it now, wasting precious boost.

FYI... It's a solid pipe

OK, that's different from other Omega 2.5TD's I've seen then, which all use, by necessity, a flexible pipe (as the intercooler is mounted to the body, which means moves in relation to the engine).

Unless we're at cross purposes?
