Wondering what type of hoses members used when installing aftermarket engine oil coolers or remote filters. Not real thrilled with the common high pressure rubber hose that comes with these kits, and most of the stainless braided hoses are actually lower pressure hose than the rubber. The problem with the rubber hose is the oil cooler/filter kits all say to replace the hose ever couple of years. Would rather have something that will last about 10 years.

What hose have you used on your engine oil cooler or remote filter?
