Review on πŸ”΄ Mishimoto MMHOSE-SUB-ITBRD Silicone Throttle Body Hose for Subaru WRX 2008-2014 Red - High-Quality Replacement Part by Tommy Russo

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Doesn't fit my 2011 WRX

No matter how I tried to position the hose logo side up, down and side to side, after two hours of fighting I still couldn't fit the hose. 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
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Repair
