I had the Samcos. They were really nice. Too bad they didn't offer the heater and bypass hoses though....

seems to me like i was barking up the wrong tree...il just get me a set then, more people seem to be interested in the OBXr ones, but i will not buy anything from them...
if anyone wants samco hoses, let me know, but im not in on the OBXr ones...
