ECS Tuning Carbon Fiber Turbo Inlet Hose - MK8 Golf R / 8Y S3
In most vehicle applications, the corrugated turbo inlet hose found in the intake system is not designed for performance or modification. It was designed to get the job done, and when adding a performance filter, intake, or tune the stock inlet hose can start to show it's weakness when suction from the turbocharger is increased.
The ECS Silicone Turbo Inlet Hose was designed in-house with a high quality 5-ply construction to provide a strong but flexible structure and secure fit, which replaces the factory corrugated hose. A smooth interior provides unimpeded airflow, while the smooth, unassuming exterior adds an appearance upgrade to any engine bay.
PART DESIGN
The silicone pipe is constructed from 5-ply silicone. Designed to fit perfectly in place of the factory accordion pipe, our CAD design assures a smooth gradual transition from the intake/airbox to the turbo inlet.
The included hose clamps allow clean fitment of any intake setup
PERFORMANCE FEATURES
With its smooth interior surface as compared to the OEM accordion tube's ribbed, turbulent interior you can expect a smoother transition from air filter to the turbo inlet.
We found that utilizing the silicone inlet tube over OEM provides a stronger, more pronounced induction noise that we all love!
