Mishimoto Blue Silicone Induction Hose for Subaru WRX & STI

Mishimoto MMHOSE-SUB-IHBL blue silicone induction hose for Subaru WRX/STI—wire-reinforced, heat-resistant, rated to 330°F for improved intake airflow.

Description

The Mishimoto MMHOSE-SUB-IHBL is a blue silicone induction hose engineered as a direct-fit replacement for the factory rubber piping on select Subaru WRX and STI models. Built from high-grade silicone reinforced with heat-resistant embedded fibers and internal wire, this hose is purpose-made to handle boost pressure and underhood heat without collapsing or degrading like the OEM rubber part it replaces.

As part of a healthy air intake system, the induction hose routes air from the intake filter toward the engine, and the quality of that piping matters just as much as the cold air intake filter itself. This Mishimoto hose features a larger internal diameter than stock for increased flow, is wire-reinforced to resist collapse under pressure, and efficiently reduces heat transfer to help keep intake air temperatures in check. It carries a Performance grade rating and is offered in black, red, or the blue finish shown here, giving owners a functional upgrade that also complements their engine bay.
