Ummm... read this on the HPS description:

"The thickness of the tubing, which is much thicker than the OEM piece, allows for an insulating affect that prevents the intake charge from increasing in temperature before it is introduced into the turbocharger. During competition the engine bay has a number of heat sources such as the radiator, exhaust manifold and turbocharger itself that can drastically effect the temperature of the intake charge."

I'm thinking they either copy and paste their item descriptions or they are a bit uneducated. Either way the hoses do look like they fit, but I'd probably pay the extra few bucks for Cobb, just my $0.02. Also, the constant torque clamps that appear to be in the pic are very nice but are too much for a stock intake hose on a plastic airbox. One or two turns beyond what is needed and those will bend the bejunkus out of the round plastic easily. I know because I did it on my last car by accident. Better off sticking with mid-grade stainless worm-gear clamps if the car is not boosted.
