Description
The Mishimoto MMHOSE-FXT-04BK is a black silicone turbo hose kit engineered as a direct replacement for the factory rubber hoses on the Subaru Forester XT. Built from high-grade silicone reinforced with heat-resistant embedded fibers, this kit is designed to hold up where OEM rubber eventually breaks down, while dropping straight into the stock hose locations with no modification required.
As part of Mishimoto’s Cooling lineup, this hose kit is meant to give your Forester XT’s turbo system a more durable, higher-pressure-tolerant alternative to aging OEM rubber. The silicone construction and embedded fiber reinforcement help the hoses manage heat more effectively than the rubber they replace, and the increased pressure tolerance makes them a practical upgrade for owners looking to improve durability and long-term reliability without altering factory fitment. The kit is offered in black, blue, or red, letting you match the hoses to your engine bay while gaining the performance benefits of a silicone replacement.
Vehicle Applications
This hose kit is built specifically for the Subaru Forester XT platform, covering the 2004-2005 Forester XT, the 2005 Forester XT Premium, the 2006-2008 Forester XT Limited, and the 2008 Forester Sports 2.5 XT. Because the kit retains OEM fitment, installation follows the same routing and connection points as the factory rubber hoses on these specific model years.
