Gates 12-19 Ford Taurus V-6 3.5L Turbo To I/C (Hot Side Left) Turbocharger Hose (Molded - Std)

If you're working on the hot side of your 2012-2019 Ford Taurus with the 3.5L EcoBoost engine, this Gates turbocharger hose is what you need for the left side. This hose connects your turbocharger to the intercooler, making sure the compressed air gets where it needs to go efficiently. A cracked or leaking hose here can really hurt performance, leading to a loss of boost and power.

Gates makes these hoses with durable rubber compounds that can handle the heat and pressure found in the turbo system. It's a molded hose, meaning it's shaped specifically to fit the factory routing, which makes installation much simpler than trying to bend and fit a universal hose. This particular hose is for the left side, often referred to as the 'hot side left' in relation to the turbocharger and intercooler setup.

Replacing a damaged turbo hose is a straightforward job that can make a noticeable difference in how your Taurus runs. Make sure to check the condition of the corresponding right-side hose while you're in there.
