Factory rubber clutch hoses are prone to expansion under the pressure of hard driving and clutch engagement.

ECS Tuning Exact-Fit Clutch Hoses are engineered and assembled with braided stainless steel mesh, offering superior expansion resistance and reinforcement. The resistance to expansion creates a firmer, more direct pedal feel.
