Review on πŸ”Œ Silicone Throttle Body Hose for Subaru WRX 2008-2014 - Mishimoto MMHOSE-SUB-ITBBK (Black) by Eric Nallamothu

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Doesn't fit my 2011 WRX

No matter how I tried to align the hose, logo side up, down and sideways, after two hours of fighting I still couldn't get the hose on. It's just too long, and its position alongside the stock hose confirms that. This will constantly move the intercooler too far out of alignment and put a lot of extra pressure on the bolts. I didn't want to risk cutting off my old turbo bolts, so I put the stock hose back on. I don't know how you could install this hose other than modifying either the hose or the machine to install it. I looked at Mishimoto's video along with every other installation video I could find online but couldn't get it to work. Whilst the hose itself is of high quality, my stock hose was still in good condition and it was more of preventative maintenance in preparation for tuning + more boost. But I'll look elsewhere in the future if the hose breaks.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
