I know APR makes them for the B5 and the B6, but I don't see anything for the B7. Does it even exist for our cars?

OR the whole intercooler set: http://www.034motorsport.com/engine-components-20t-fsi-intercooler-hose-set-silicone-b7-20t-fsi-p-19529.html

jl87, that first link is the turbo inlet hose, which is for the air intake system. I actually have that on my car already. The second link might have it in there though but I can't tell. The throttle body hose is the big hose on the drivers side of the engine.
Yea. The intercooler set has that in it since the other end of the TB attaches to the intercooler.

Cool, thanks!
No problem. Also looks like these are very similar, although not US based. http://www.ppcgb.com/Silicon-Intercooler-Hose-Kit-Venair---Audi-A4--B7--20T-170-220-BHP/prod14336/

From my experience the aluminum retain a lot of heat transferred from the throttle body and from being right next to the block. Unless you need a bigger pipe for a big ass turbo I wouldn't waste your money.
