Description
The Mishimoto Silicone Induction Hose, part number MMHOSE-SUB-08IHBL, is a wire-reinforced, blue silicone turbo inlet hose engineered as a direct replacement for the factory unit on the Subaru WRX platform. Built from high-grade silicone with heat-resistant embedded fibers, this hose is designed to handle boost pressure without collapsing while opening up a larger internal diameter than the stock hose for improved flow into the turbo.
As part of a properly functioning air intake system, the path between the intake and the turbo needs to hold its shape under pressure and resist heat soak, and that is exactly what this Mishimoto induction hose is built to do. The accessory ports feature CNC aluminum fittings with a 3-barb design intended to resist falling out or leaking under load, and removable fittings simplify installation. Because it retains stock fitment, this induction hose bolts in as a stock replacement or pairs with a Mishimoto Performance Cold Air Intake, a Mishimoto Performance Race Intake, or your factory after-MAF hose, giving WRX owners a durable upgrade path within their existing air intake setup without requiring a tune.
