Is...is that garden hose and you serious or trolling? Oh my god if this is real...please do not share this with anyone. I wouldn't want anyone to catch your stupidity. Not only is plastic garden hose a TERRIBLE fucking idea to hold oil pressure, if it bursts inside your cabin it's going to spray hot oil everywhere, including on you and in your face. It will probably cause an accident.

Household water pressure is a maximum of 30psi while the oil pressure in your car can be up to 100+ psi on startup. Garden hose isn't rated to handle that....not only that but the high heat of the oil will weaken the hose as well.

There is a reason that all aftermarket oil coolers use steel braided or steel laced rubber hose...this setup is just stupid. I don't know what in your brain thought this was a good idea.
