A pure abomination indeed. That is beyond rice, beyond ghetto, beyond comprehension why anyone would a.) ever do that and b.) ever come up with the concept.

But you know what? It'll likely sell like hotcakes to some of these silly kids. Because you know, it automatically adds 12 hp for every pipe you add....

lol...and what exactly does 'cooling capability' have to do with hoses?
Hoses are not heat exchangers, there is no way a Pyrex hose will affect the cooling one whit.

But in the end, all that matters is what each owner likes...not what everyone else likes. That has always been one of the best things about car ownership.

Hoses don't cool the coolant, radiators do. It will make no difference at all.

Pyrex, after all, is GLASS. I need pieces of glass in my engine bay like I need a hole in a coolant seal.

I think (and hope) this post is merely dripping with sarcasm.

This product is a poster child for the riceboypage.

http://www.riceboypage.com

The riceboypage use to get updated back in the days but I guess the owner just got tired of it and forgot about it. I'm surprise the page is still being hosted. Anyway, if you guys need a good laugh go check out the link. That was the first thing that came to my mind when I saw the killer glass product.

Dont get me wrong. Looks awesome. However.... YOU WILL NOT PASS TECH AT ANY TRACK WITH IT!

Trust me, I've watched over 30 people get turned away on multiple occasions and different events. It's for show cars only.

They actually last...and look really cool just...however I'd like to be able to go to the track. I mean they weren't even letting people run at the 1/8th Mile with those things.

PS. Fuel door cover is White again... I just want to find a carbonfiber one now. hah

Unfortunately that means there are at least 30 of these out there installed in cars. I must be losing touch with the world.
