CAC Hose 4in I.D. x 8in long - Black

The CAC Hose 4in I.D. x 8in long in black by VIBRANT PERFORMANCE is an essential intercooler piping component designed for turbocharged and supercharged engine builds. Whether you're upgrading a factory boost system or constructing a custom forced-induction setup, this charge air cooler hose bridges the gap between your CAC (charge air cooler) and intake manifold with precision engineering. Built to withstand elevated boost pressures and operating temperatures, this hose is the backbone of efficient air-to-fuel ratio management in performance applications.

Manufactured by VIBRANT PERFORMANCE, a recognized leader in thermal and fluid management systems, this 4-inch inner diameter hose delivers the flow capacity required for mid-range to aggressive boost levels without restrictive turbulence. The 8-inch length provides flexibility in routing around engine bay obstacles while maintaining minimal pressure drop across the intercooler circuit. Black silicone or reinforced construction resists ozone degradation and maintains structural integrity under sustained boost, ensuring your boost threshold remains consistent lap after lap or pull after pull. The hose's compact footprint at just 1.11 lbs keeps system weight minimal while its durable construction eliminates the common failure points associated with weaker OEM piping.

This CAC hose is ideal for mechanics and enthusiasts upgrading intercooler systems on popular platforms including domestic trucks, import tuner cars, and street performance vehicles. Installation pairs seamlessly with VIBRANT PERFORMANCE coupling kits and standard intercooler clamps, making integration straightforward in both stock and heavily modified engine bays. The hose's neutral routing characteristics accommodate various intercooler placements—front-mount, top-mount, or custom configurations—without kinking or collapsing under boost. For anyone serious about maximizing turbo or supercharger efficiency while maintaining reliable street or track operation, this component delivers the dependable performance and thermal management that separates amateur builds from engineered systems.
