Description
Maximize the performance and reliability of your 1.8T engine with the Forge Motorsport Uprated Silicone Intake Hose, designed specifically for the Audi A4, A6 (B5/B6) and Volkswagen Passat (B5/B6) chassis. This performance intake hose offers a significant upgrade over OEM rubber components, delivering improved airflow, enhanced durability, and long-term reliability in high-temperature and high-pressure environments.
Unlike the restrictive factory intake hose, this silicone replacement features an enlarged internal bore to eliminate airflow bottlenecks, ensuring your turbocharged engine breathes more freely. The result is optimized throttle response and smoother power delivery, especially under increased boost from performance tuning.
Constructed with multi-ply reinforced silicone and an inner lining of fluorosilicone, this hose is resistant to oil mist, long-life engine coolants, and Organic Acid Technology (O.A.T.) coolants—making it suitable for modern and aggressive driving applications. Its robust design also adds a sleek, performance-oriented appearance to your engine bay.
Fitment Notice:
These hoses were designed based on right-hand drive (RHD) vehicles. While believed to fit left-hand drive (LHD) models, we recommend a visual comparison with your factory hose before installation.
