Description
The Mishimoto MMHOSE-E36-92IBBK is a black silicone intake boot engineered as a direct OEM-fit replacement for the factory rubber hose in the air intake system of the BMW E36 325/328/M3 platform. Molded as a one-piece assembly with round ends on both sides, this Performance-grade hose is built from high-grade silicone reinforced with heat-resistant embedded fibers, giving it a maximum temperature rating of 330°F for durability that outlasts a stock rubber intake boot.
As the factory rubber boot in an air intake system ages, it can crack, soften, or lose shape under heat and pressure, which is where a Mishimoto silicone intake boot steps in. By retaining OEM fitment while increasing pressure tolerance, this intake boot helps maintain a solid, leak-resistant connection through the intake tract so your engine can draw air the way it was designed to. Mishimoto backs the hose with a Lifetime Warranty, and it ships as a one-piece unit with stainless steel clamps included for a complete, ready-to-install upgrade to your air intake system.
