we dont know if mine doesnt work YET! haha

You can do a DIYPNP for 430 bucks. But you really cant beat the deal that MS has to offer. Its cheaper than AEM EMS, and I feel it has more options.

The exterior of the hose is perfectly fine. Very little liner has been removed/eaten off.

This is high pressure PTFE hose, thats the reason why the exterior has so much steel braiding.

So I've been told that E85 will eat away at teflon hoses, also I've been told that it won't. To clear things up I decided to test some hose in E85 and in 93oct. Both jars were filled 02/07/2013 Both jars are periodically shaken around. http://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn1/559724_10200145747898...

Okay, I think I had the hex head bolts in it and they were too big. These bolts fit, but without lock washers. :/

I have the bottom one that you posted. My only problem with these style adapters is the b-nut for the hose chafes the hardware holding it on. Unless you can find a smaller head bolt. I have hex key heads low profile ones and they still rub. Ill see if i can get a picture today after work.
