Forge Motorsport Silicone Intake Hose with Hose Clamps for VAG Mk4 Golf Platform 1.8T

As the original developers, engineers, and enthusiasts who brought the VAG induction hose line to the market, Forge Motorsport is pleased to offer a completely retooled, redesigned, and reengineered intake hoses for all VAG 1.8T applications. Forge hoses are guaranteed to rival the best offerings from any other manufacturer on the market today; in terms of quality, price, and most importantly, performance.

The first hose released from this new range is the induction hose for 1.8T Golf's, Jetta's, GTI's, Beetle Turbo S's and Seat Leon (not Leon Cupra R). This hose fits all of the following engine codes on the above mentioned vehicles: AWW - AWD - AWP - AUM - APP - AWU - AUQ. These engine codes require a small blanking plug for a port on the hose not used on this engine code. This plug is included at no additional charge. If you require help in finding your engine code, please contact us.

These hoses have been designed and manufactured with the utmost care given to quality and performance. The silicone compound used in the construction of the hoses is of the highest sheer strength available and is hand-laid with a polyester reinforcement fabric. The layering of the hoses is far more uniform and consistent than of that from any other manufacturer which improves the overall structural integrity of the hoses up to 50%. The internal surface of the hose is completely smooth and unobstructed and the internal volume of this hose has been increased to provide the highest level of airflow at all points within the power band. We have also taken extra care to ensure consistency between each hose produced, and that each hose includes all of the necessary ports and provisions required for each engine code and application as have often been missing on hoses from other manufacturers.

Dyno testing was performed by an independent reviewer and Forge dealer NGP Racing on their in-house DynoJet dynamometer. Testing was performed on a 2003 Jetta 1.8T with an AWP engine code. For the benefit of those without engine software modifications, testing was also conducted with stock ECU software as well as APR's 93 octane software. The results show a 6 BHP increase using the stock programming and a 13 BHP increase using the APR 93 Octane programming with an SAE correction factor.

The Forge silicone hoses in this kit have been designed to include an expensive inner liner of modified silicone known as Fluorosilicone.

This means the hoses are suitable to be used with either modern long-life coolants, Organic Acid Technology coolants (O.A.T.) or air containing oil mist.

The construction of the hoses has been engineered to exceed that of the OEM fitments, and will enhance any engine bay both technically and aesthetically

The use of a Fluorosilicone liner ensures that Forge silicone hoses are the clear market leader.
