850 Turbo Wagon - 200K Miles

I was revving the engine just a bit from the engine bay after replacing the heater core, and noticed that if I blipped the throttle to wide open for just a moment, the air intake hoses (Inter cooler to throttle body & throttle body to intake manifold) would completely collapse, producing a whistling affect as air squeezed through the crushed hose. The hoses appear to be in good condition, but are a bit flexible. I am certain this condition is killing the engines performance from a stop.

Is there a spring insert available to keep the hose open?

or

Should I just replace them? If so, what type is recommended?

Thank you.
