      Upper Radiator Hose

      Here is a pic showing the difference between the OEM EP3 upper rad hose and the "new" upper rad hose from NAPA part#7940. Notice how it clears the intake completely! This has been used with success on CAI, SRI's and turbo set-ups.

      the Samco hoses gave me quite a bit of clearance also, it has a smaller outside diameter than stock. your method looks to work well also (whatever gets that hot hose off the charge pipe:thumb:)

      Im about to stop and get one tomorrow. Anybody know if it clears the RBC with a RSX S Fujita CAI? Cause my rad hose is sitting on my CAI tube!

      $14 Ordered it today. It'll be there tomorrow morning. Hopefully it helps, The hose on there now is bent around the top of the intake tube. It's not kinked or anything tho

      YEP it will totally clear the RSX S Fujita CAI, it is so similar to the Injen CAI that they could be called clones of each other.

      can we get a picture of your engine bay to see the samco? did you notice any difference when you got that hot ass hose away from your charge pipe? my rad hose sits right on my charge pipe and it gets really hot!

      Yep, it has taken up residence where the spare tire used to be.

      can't feel it but I'm sure it's better, atleast the charge pipe isn't scorching right at the T.B. after being intercooled not the best or the closest shots, I'll try to find a better one or just take a new one. Here ya go for now.
