I have a 2014 Mustang GT with a Roush S/C on it. Took it for a spin the other day and somehow one of the intercooler hoses had came to rest up against one of the lower pulleys. The pulley bolts tore a big hole in the hose and had coolant spraying every where in the engine bay. I contacted Roush on Friday and asked them about a replacement hose, They told me they did not sell individual hoses.......?...?. I'm confused in the sense that aren't those hoses custom cut and formed to fit the application? I've never dealt with coolant hoses before so is this something I can just walk into Autozone and get a replacement for. Roush was not very helpful. I was looking online and can't seem to find anyone that has replacement hoses for Roush S/C. Does anyone know were I can go? Also, Can I use a garden hose to spray off all the coolant in the engine bay or will the water mess something up. I've heard people say you can't because of the electrical but isn't everything in there sealed and water tight?

Take the damaged hose and you can get a replacement piece at Autozone etc. Most of the intercooler hoses are not custom fit in my experience. You simply need the correct diameter and length and then fit it in place --- Maybe you can route it so that it doesn't come near that pulley.

I'll try that, Hopefully will get it taken off later this week and I'll run it over to Autozone and see what they tell me. Again, Never messed with hoses was under the impression they custom made those. I'm assuming I can get the hose with that nylon web over it to help protect it from knicks etc. Did hold up well against pulley bolts......:-P
