Default FMIC hoses....

My OC T Fmic has the dimpled hoses.
If I lose the aliens...should I replace the hoses?

If I don't...will it restrict air flow because of the way it's design or should I be ok?

Default All FMIC hoses are dimpled like that...>

Forge(Samco) and OCT. I don't think anyone makes a smooth set..

Default I could have sworn Forge made a smooth set...

but do you think a smoother hose would significantly increase performance?

Default Not necessarily....>>

They do tend to pinch the hoses even more. I'd lose em. You don't need those suckers in FL.!!
