Silicone intake hose for Audi A3, Golf 4 1.8T 150-180PS

Item no: 380700-S

Silicone intake hose for Audi A3, Golf 4 1.8T 150-180PS in blue

This reinforced silicone intake hose replaces the OEM component in the intake system of 1.8T engines. In performance-tuned engines, the multi-layer construction prevents the hose from collapsing due to increased vacuum (suction). This ensures a constant flow cross-section and, consequently, a steady air supply to the turbocharger.
