Mountune Updated their Induction Hose

[AGentlemanWalru]

Hey noticed this while looking around at induction hoses again, as I don't like the current solutions of adapters/or evap changes to use currently available.

Mountune updated their current charge pipe with what looks like a machined aluminum evap bi-pass similar to the stock 2016+ models.

Messaged them yesterday to see if the adapter was available seperately and got this reply:

"Hello,

Thank you for your email. Unfortunately we do not offer the adapter by itself. It only is available with the intake hose. "

So kind of nixes buying it for other cheaper hoses.

Here's hoping Ron [MENTION=337]whoosh[/MENTION]motorsports can do some of his reverse-engineering magic.

That's a shame because they could charge quite a bit for that part and still have quite a few sales.

Right? I feel like $40ish for something like that would be easy money on their end. But ah well.

they did a great job with that check valve for the 2016+
no plans to follow that

we have been stocking the actual conversion lines from Ford for quite some time now which opens up your options for any intake kit for 2016-2019 Fiestas not just a silicone induction hose
listed on the site right next to the intakes

You could do it yourself. I can't remember what size the fitting is, but Aeromotive makes a similar adapter. Not cheap at $65.00 and you also need to add another fitting for a total of $73.00 plus figuring out a venturi setup.

Idk if they could sell it for $40 dollars. Looking at the section view from the linked image, it looks like that black piece needs at least 4 different operations to make. So depending on quantities, it could cost a lot more to make. But I agree they should sell it separately.
