As the title states, who has put some time on the driftmotion oil pump hose? I have a motor that has one in it [no i dont have a stock one] and IJ had me worried about it [because of nosechunks failure but he built his own kit] so I contacted Aaron. He informed me the rubber line was good for 5 years for fuel, he said it should last for 10+ years as the fuel is more volitile. My big worry is just passing fuel through it is alot different environment than being submerged in hot oil. The kit is about a year old and I'm just up in the air as to whether I should have Aaron or Sumeet build me a teflon hose or just keep this one.

Let me hear your experiences good or bad and how long you have had it

I would use stock or the arp hard line. There is no gain to be had by using a rubber hose covered in stainless braid.

Alot of people have used them and ive seen a few break over the years. Up to you when you want to replace it and with what.

So. Col.
I had a similar dilemma during my build. I chose the added security being that I didn't want to pull apart my engine ever again, and went with the AZperformance hardline. Flows more and Will out last the car.

I would just use a hard line. Either stock or the azp one. Hard line will out live the Teflon one any day.

Pretty absurd they're selling parts that will fail and destroy engines. I e-mailed them asking about that hose. They never replied. I wonder why? *sarcasm
