With the cost of raw stainless steel these days this piece is really a great deal. It is three pieces of stainless, has two bends, includes ETS 4-ply reinforced silicone and clamps, is built 100% in house and as such is hand polished

Tom, would heat wrapping this piece help keep the coolant temps down? Thanks!

We've not tested that before, but I'd imagine that engine bay temp is around 130 degrees when the car is at road speed. Given that EVOs run in the 175-180 degree coolant temp range, I don't think that wrapping the radiator hose would be beneficial

We can powder coat them here in either black or silver to match the rest of our piping, or leave them bare SS if you'd prefer to paint.
