VW Golf R Mk8 / Audi S3 8Y 4-Layer Reinforced Silicone Air Intake Hose

Product Overview

This 4-layer reinforced silicone air intake hose is an OE-style replacement for the air cleaner hose on the Volkswagen Golf R Mk8 and Audi S3 8Y. Factory intake hoses can soften or collapse under high airflow, especially on tuned turbocharged engines. A reinforced silicone hose is designed to hold its shape and resist heat, providing a durable link between the air filter housing and turbo inlet.
