There are numerous suppliers of this part on the bestpart.co.uk website.
The drivers side intercooler in the Denso Part was out of stock so they gave me a AKS Dasis one for the same price. I put it side by side the Denso unit and it was 100% identical (mirror). It was definitely made in the same factory.
I believe some of the manufacturers are owned by the same parent company so the part is manufactured in the same factory.
Here are some some of the other manufacturers:
AKS Dasis
NRF
Prasco
Magneti Marelli
Van Wezel

Just go to this website https://www.bestpartstore.co.uk and search on part number 99711064070
You should get the various manufacturer options however Denso is generally the cheapest.
I had mine shipped to Australia without any issues.

Wow! Helluva price. I could not get under €315 (roughly 280GBP) even with Black Friday sales.Did you happen to look inside as well? I was just wondering if the tubes are finned inside in the same fashion as whoever the OEM supplier is, does.
I have not purchased these yet. Sometimes having a very slow project is good.

When you buy the 7.2ICs, they come with the new style rectangular clips. The old round clips do not work well. Also get the latest generation OEM boost hoses. The ends have been redesigned and are very good. The hoses themselves have a composite mesh core, excellent stuff. When you clip them in you could hang an elephant off of them and they won't come apart. I've never had the OEM stuff come loose in years of hard track use. I used to have Forge hoses and got rid of them as the fit was inferior. The F hose is a different story, the OEM is prone to failure along the seam as it's pure rubber with no internal reinforcement. Make sure you swap the F hose to multi layer silicone.

Sorry, don't know what to tell you. In over 8 years of tracking these ICs with the OEM hoses, I've never has any issues with pop outs. The hose would literally rip in half before it would fail at the clip in.

I had a problem like this on a rad hose... It ended up being the little ears that the clip holds. They are part of the hose. I used a small flathead and pried them open a little more. Voila. No more pop outs.
I'm trying to upload a pic but it's not coming through right now. I'll try again in a bit.

Where the hoses go in to, push a very small screwdriver in the tabs to open them a bit and it will provide more mechanical force to lock them into place. Also make sure the clips are good. You should be good now!
