Description
Upgrade the factory intake system on your compatible MQB-platform vehicle with the Ramair 2.0 TSI EA888 Red Silicone Intake Hose. Designed as a direct replacement for the restrictive OEM plastic induction hose, this high-quality silicone intake pipe is engineered for compatible 1.8 TSI and 2.0 TSI EA888 engines, including applications such as the VW Golf MK7 GTI, Golf R, Audi S3, SEAT Leon Cupra, and other MQB-platform vehicles.
The Ramair intake hose features a constant-radius design that helps reduce unnecessary restriction through the initial section of the intake tract. Replacing the factory plastic pipe with reinforced multi-ply silicone provides improved durability and flexibility while maintaining compatibility with the original intake system.
The hose is supplied with high-quality stainless steel W2 hose clamps, providing a secure connection while replacing the difficult-to-use OEM spring clamps. It can be installed with the standard factory air box or used with compatible aftermarket induction kits designed to mount in the factory air box position.
The standard shipping rate applies to orders within the continental United States. If you intend to place an order outside of the continental US, please reach out to support@x-ph.com for assistance.
High-Quality Multi-Ply Silicone Construction
The intake hose is manufactured from high-quality multi-ply silicone with fabric mesh reinforcement, providing excellent strength and durability for performance applications. The reinforced construction helps the hose maintain its shape under demanding operating conditions while offering greater flexibility than the original rigid plastic pipe.
The red silicone finish also adds a distinctive performance-inspired appearance to the engine bay while maintaining a clean and professional installation.
Constant-Radius Intake Design
The Ramair intake pipe is designed with a constant-radius profile to help provide a smoother intake path and reduce restriction in the initial section of the induction system. This design supports improved airflow potential compared with the standard OEM-style plastic hose.
The pipe is engineered as a direct replacement for the factory induction hose, making it suitable for use with the original air box as well as compatible aftermarket induction systems positioned in the factory location.
Stainless Steel W2 Hose Clamps
Included with the intake hose is a pair of stainless steel W2 hose clamps. These replace the difficult-to-use OEM spring clamps and provide a secure connection between the intake hose and the surrounding intake components.
