The Gates pressure hose is an automotive dream. Based on our own experience using it for our car, we can attest to its durability, flexible structure that makes it easy to install, and resistance to heat. Its performance is exceptional and it is a definite upgrade from stock hoses. If there has to be any downside, the price could be considered a con, but we believe the quality and performance is worth every penny. Highly recommend this hose to anyone looking for an upgrade. .See full review
