This silicone intake hose really impressed me with its durability and performance .It was easy to install and has improved the overall efficiency of my car`s engine. The black color also adds a sleek, modern look to my engine bay. The only downside is THAT it is a bit pricey compared to other hoses on the market. Overall I highly recommend this automotive silicone intake hose for any car enthusiast looking to boost their engine's performance..
