Any downside to using the stock hoses on my MK7 R for this? Want to keep things looking as stock as possible. Also, would the black or silver IC look more stock when installed

I bought this IC earlier this year and will finally have it installed this Friday. I finally tried logging with VCDS, but Datazap doesn't seem to like the file. The first row in Datazap is misaligned with respect to the rest of the rows. Has anyone uploaded a VCDS log to Datazap successfully? I could use some hints as I would like to post before and after logs. TIA
Open the file in exel, realign the cells, save, then upload. Should fix you right up.
The stock clamps are 64-74mm and are listed as 2.5".Gonna install this weekend, but just a quick question:
What size are the IC hose clamps. I was pretty sure it was 2.5in. My IC is missing 3 of the clamps and I want to order new ones. Thanks for the info. Tried to search and didn't see the size listed or recs.
Thanks for the reassurance. Don't really see any way around it besides filing open the core support mounting tabs.The pipe and clamp on my driver side also has little to no clearance. I was under it yesterday and I found no issues with it though.
Got the IC installed. All went relatively smooth. Radiator clip inserts needed to be modified/opened up. Passenger side tab below the Radiator clip was undersized (went in, just tough).
Weird thing was all went smoothly until final alignment. The driver's side put up a small fight installing the clips. No clearance issues with the driver's side peg at all. Bottom peg installed. Rotated the lower mounts all the way forward (only gained maybe 1/8in.; stock core support bolt was almost all the way forward).
Needless to say the driver's side boost hose is right up against the fan guard. Don't really dig it. I don't forsee it being a huge issue, but the engine is gonna move, even with a dogbone insert.
Anyone else have this fit issue? Seriously all else was good. Just can't figure out why the driver's side didn't seat as well. Got it to shift another ~ 1/8in. forward, but couldn't get anything else out of it. Honestly worried about the plastic boost pipe.
