Turbos are now commonly fitted to boost power where engines are smaller to meet emission standards. These turbos are subject to very high levels of stress and components can often require replacement. To meet this need First Line offers a comprehensive selection of high quality turbo hoses. 

It is vital a replacement hose is of a premium quality in order to withstand severe heat and that it is constructed of a high-end material to prevent splits and defects, which will cause the turbo to rev higher, and ultimately fail sooner. Turbo defects will also result in a drop in performance, increased emissions, and can cause the vehicle to fall into limp home mode.

First Line Ltd. offers a very popular range of Turbo and Engine Hoses and is regularly expanding its turbocharger hose offering to respond to heightened demand. The range today has more than 750 part numbers, providing excellent vehicle parc coverage and gives technicians a variety of choice for the component.

“It’s often overlooked how important it is to check the condition of the Turbo Hoses and replace them where necessary, especially when replacing a turbo, to maintain optimum performance, whilst ensuring longevity of the components” says Jon Roughley, Global Marketing Director of First Line. He adds, “Traditionally considered a dealer only product, we provide the aftermarket with an extensive range of high-end Turbo Hoses. Our products use original equipment manufacturer materials and connectors, with a thorough testing regime throughout the various stages of manufacturing to give the aftermarket the best product possible.” 

Product identification can be challenging in this area, so First Line has created technical layout drawings for every application so technicians can pinpoint exactly which turbo hose they need for the job.

Jon concludes, “All our First Line products are manufactured by our trusted partners who have been inspected and approved by our expert product team, giving us the confidence to offer a full two year or 24,000 mile warranty from the time the product is fitted.”
