No benefit at all, it's for looks only.

"Is this a serious question?"

Ok, I just got into cars and know nothing about them. No need to be a d1ck. Isn't it even worse for you to take time to reply to a question you find to be a joke compared to my me taking time to learn something I know nothing of? Thanks lil Duece.

^^^You are 24 years old and I'm sure this isn't your 1st car. You should know that a radiator hose isn't a performance enhancer! C'mon now!

Yes it's not my first car, as I said I just became interested in cars and know very little. Sorry I focused my time in books to become a lawyer most of my life. You may have done so with cars. Knowledge shows interest and you show a lot of interest in a post that seems very unintelligent and irrelevant. Says much about the 36 year old. Not every car owner knows about cars. You lived around politics and lived by many laws for 36 years and I am sure you lack much more knowledge than I do with a simple radiator hose question.

^^Awesome and well said!
Not everyone who drives a car will know about a car. Out of 100 people 75 you can pop the hood and ask them to point out where you check the oil and will point out the windshield washer bottle. LoL

radiator hoses imo do post a huge enhancement to power, not maybe HP gain, but better hoses no doubt will keep the car running stronger/cooler, vs stock ones, if you want show id suggest killerglass (though i dont think its actually glass) more of a lexan or something

my suggestion purchase silicone samco hoses + they come in a wide variety of colors!
