Default Turbo Hose Replacement Q

I read in here somewhere that there are some Turbo hoses that are better than others....something about orange ends...I looked and couldn't find it.

Anyone have advice on this one?

Thanks.

The original turbo hoses were all black.
The replacement items were all orange.
Simply order a new set from Porsche, and will receive the orange hoses.

Then order Breeze clamps to replace the factory hose clamps to prevent the new hoses from splitting and fraying.

Default upgraded turbo/intercooler hoses

I think just the ends are orange,
black hoses with orange ends.
