This hose replaces the rubber fresh air hose that feeds the airbox on the S54B32 powered E46 M3, a part that hardens and tears at the folds and then lets unmetered air into the intake tract. It is moulded from high quality silicone with three to five reinforcement layers and carries an integrated steel wire spiral that keeps the wall from collapsing under intake vacuum at high rpm. Matching hose clamps are sold separately as clamp-kit231.
