When hoses go bad, you won't notice at an idle, but give it gas/WOT , you will see the hose suck together, preventing flow. This is from the hose loosing it's rigidity. Older hoses use to have coils in them keeping them from doing this. You might be shocked when you give it gas and see that hose collapse, it shouldn't do that :)

Fix Replace the hose!

Even if I have new parts store oem hose from autozone. I know the hoses don't have coils in them for sure.
 
You're sure this overheating condition is not a result of blocked airflow to the rad (read: FMIC)? Many folks experience such things when running with a FMIC and slim fans.
Slim fans, great on paper, but IMHO should really only be used when the stock fans do not provide enough clearance, there's just simply not enough airflow compared to the stock fans.
