Using this Mishimoto silicone turbo inlet hose is easy. Just replace your old stock hose with it following the standard installation process. Make sure all the connections are tight to prevent air leaks. When it comes to maintenance, regularly check for any signs of wear and tear, like cracks or holes. Clean it with a mild soap and water solution occasionally to keep it in good condition. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the silicone. Also, be careful not to over - tighten the clamps during installation to prevent any damage to the hose.
