Improve Airflow - Silicone Induction Hose R&D, Part 2: Final Prototype

Improve Airflow - Silicone Induction Hose R&D, Part 2: Final Prototype

Key takeaways

    • Performance induction hose for the Fiesta. Replaces factory rubber hoses with premium silicone, offering superior heat resistance and improved durability.
    • Engineered for high-temperature reliability. Multi-ply silicone construction withstands turbo boost, sustained high intake temps, and aggressive under-hood environment.
    • OEM-compatible fitment and connections. Uses factory hose barbs and clamp interfaces; integrates seamlessly with stock air and induction systems.
    • Tested for long-term performance and reliability. Mishimoto validates all induction hoses for thermal durability, pressure compatibility, and real-world application with warranty.

We received our final silicone prototype for testing and got straight to installing it on our Fiesta ST. This install is a breeze! After removing two quick clamps and a barb fitting, the stock hose was out and the Mishimoto hose was installed and looking good. Take a look at our black hose option installed on the Fiesta ST.
