i did that on mine... although the engine was out when i was doing the hoses (still out... no time to put it back in the car)

advice... do one hose at a time and clean up the engine... it's dirty! (at least mine was)

It's cheaper then having to replace the solenoid whose nipple broke because the hose was too stiff.

Everyone likes aesthetics. Plus, your old cracked hoses are only going to lead to problems in the future, and, more than likely, you'll break a few hoses on the R&R. Go for the change.

BTW, do you need a write-up on the R&R while I'm still kicking around?

I don't think I need to tell you that you need more fuel, and to lay off boost and WOT during break-in...
