MK7 Golf/Jetta 1.4T Silicone Turbo Inlet Hose | ES3660431

The corrugated turbo inlet hose?found in the OEM air intake system was not designed for performance or modifications. 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 its weaknesses when suction from the turbocharger is increased.

The ECS Silicone Turbo Inlet Hose for the VW MK7 Golf/Jetta 1.4T was?designed inhouse with a highquality 5ply reinforced construction?to provide?a strong but flexible structure and secure fit. Smooth bends and internal walls with a counterbored outlet provides unimpeded airflow, while the smooth, gloss black exterior adds an appearance upgrade to any engine bay.?
