This hose seems to work quite well. It is not a straight piece and the bend in it seems quite well suited to the geometry of the ic to turbo relationship.
I cut off a little over 4 inches of the end that fits the turbo. Probably could have cut off just a little less. That would have allowed me to trim the other end so it would fit on the intercooler a bit farther. But all in all, it seems to fit quite well.
Both ends were a good snug fit, with the intercooler end being a fair struggle. My back is almost raw from laying under the car while engaged in this hand-to-hose combat... ah ah ah, keep those minds out of the gutter now. ;-)
Also, this hose does not rest against the back of the intercooler like my old hose did. Should allow a bit better flow I'd imagine.
