I'm not a purist by any stretch but I also wouldn't let my kids loose with the felt tips on my car.

Each to their own I guess...

Wash your mouth out with soap. No discoloured hoses on the 4.2, just proper mechanical engineering

Ha! I did say short induction (I thought the crappy standard ones discoulored?)
You could always have long non discoloured ones.

Unfortunately they don't stay that colour for long. I had new blue ones from ACT they started to discolour after about a year.

They need a fuel resistant inner as it's the fuel spraying from the injectors that's causes it.

My long ones aren't discoloured much and have been on for 4 years or so.
