ECS Tuning MK8 GTI/Golf R 2.0T Evo4 Silicone Coolant Reroute Hose

The factory expansion tank coolant hose that runs over top of the intake air scoop can be quite a let down when installing an aftermarket intake system. Leaving an out of place and unsecured hose on top of your brand new cold air intake simply ruins the look underneath the hood!  Introducing our ECS Tuning Silicone Coolant Hose Reroute Kit. Designed and engineered in house to take the less obtrusive hose routing and direct coolant underneath your intake system for more pleasing underhood-aesthetics. This coolant hose connects the upper radiator hose bypass fitting to the expansion tank return line.    PART DESIGN In-house designed and engineered using FARO ARM laser scanning technology and SolidWorks 3D CAD modeling for precision fitment  Made from 3-ply black silicone which offers better resilience over factory rubber hose Designed to handle 250° Fahrenheit continuously and tested up to 44.1psi for long lasting, dependable operation Includes T304 stainless steel smooth-band hose clamps to replace the OE constant tensions clamps    PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT Our ECS Coolant Reroute Hose was designed, engineered, tested and quality inspected by our Research and Development team in our Wadsworth, Ohio facility.
