Upgrade to Samco silicone, metal is expensive and adds more joiners which then adds more areas to fail. Also doesn't flex as much as silicone when the engine moves.
if you really want to have a play, i have a dummy set (tac welded pipe for 07-11) turbo hoses, I was going to make some stainless kits many years ago but never got around to it. they are yours free if you want them

Thanks for the offer but I'll stick with the Samco's now.
Was looking at some stainless steel ones from Germany but were double the cost ....
Well I eventually replaced the 11 year old rubber turbo hoses on my 2007 with the Samco silicon.
Apart from dirty oily residue on the outside internally they looked fine with no visible cracks after 145,000KM
So that's one more paranoia box crossed off the list
