I don't see how it could be better air flow since it is plumed into the radiator hose. It looks like just a new place for coolant leaks.

lol it's the radiator hose. hopefully it has no air flow.

it just makes it so you can see your coolant. it is not a performance mod.

it would be cool except u would prolly have to drain all the coolent out before u install it.. and the price is a littly pricy for a piece of glass.. rather buy something that gives off performance..

I'd be good when turbo'd to see if you've got any oil in the coolant...but other than that, cosmetic. Saw their kits in person @ NOPI Nationals and they looked top-notch...plus very cool with an LED or light source under it.

^In the photos there is a red LED or light source, but because they used a flash you can't get a good idea of what it's supposed to look like.

Good for HIN shows with darker surroundings, but like I said earlier...it'd only be useful for me when I FINALLY turbo my Civic.

Might look better with a really bright green led at both ends of the clear tube, make the coolant kinda glow green............like kryptonite.......maybe we'll be able to smoke the Corvettes and Mustangs then, since we'll have kryptonite for all those superman cars.
