Description
Upgrade the factory intake tract of your VW Golf MK8 GTI with the Black Ramair Silicone Intake Hose, specifically designed for vehicles equipped with the 245bhp 2.0 TSI EA888 Gen 4 engine. This performance silicone intake hose replaces the restrictive OEM plastic induction pipe with a smoother, more durable alternative designed to improve airflow through the initial section of the intake system.
The hose features a carefully engineered constant-radius design, helping reduce restrictions and create a smoother airflow path between the airbox and turbocharger. As a direct replacement for the factory induction hose, it provides an effective intake upgrade while retaining compatibility with the original intake system.
Manufactured from high-quality multi-ply silicone with fabric mesh reinforcement, the hose is engineered to withstand the demanding temperatures and operating conditions found within the engine bay while providing excellent durability and flexibility.
The kit includes two high-quality stainless-steel W2 hose clamps, replacing the difficult-to-use OEM spring clamps. These clamps provide secure connections at the intake system and simplify installation compared with the original factory hardware.
The Ramair silicone intake hose can be installed with the standard factory airbox or used with compatible aftermarket induction kits designed to mount in the original airbox position. This makes it a versatile upgrade for owners looking to improve the intake tract without replacing the entire intake system.
