think of the lovely heat that lovely shiny pipe can store for you too! Especially being metal too, it can stay hot for longer, like a nice radiator to keep the inlet air warm for you.

Adam seems to think the shiny aluminium will heat up and retain heat more than the original matt black plastic hosing and will therefore be a Bad Thing. I think Adam is smoking crack
Christian must be refering to the miles of stainless piping Adam got free with his FMIC
