What Silicone Parts Does OVERTAKE Make for Your Subaru? Now in OVERTAKE Blue

Most people find OVERTAKE through exactly one part. A radiator hose kit, because the factory upper hose finally went soft and you found it on a forum thread. Or a post MAF hose, because the OEM accordion looked tired next to everything else you had done to the bay. You bought the one thing, it fit, and that was the end of it.

Here is what most of those people never find out. Silicone runs through more of your engine bay than you think, and OVERTAKE builds parts for most of it. Cooling system, intake tract, turbo inlet, intercooler plumbing, boost control plumbing. Across 2002 through 2026 WRX, STI, Forester XT, BRZ, FRS, 86, Legacy GT, and Outback XT.

Eighteen of those parts are now available in OVERTAKE Blue. Same hose, same construction, same price as red and black. If you already run something in our blue, or you just like the color as much as we do, the rest of the bay can match now.

Where Silicone Actually Lives on Your Subaru

Silicone is not one product category. It is a material that shows up in five separate systems on your car, doing five different jobs, and the parts have almost nothing to do with each other beyond what they are made of.

Your cooling system moves hot coolant through hoses that spend twenty years cycling between ambient and operating temperature. Your intake tract routes air from the airbox toward the engine. On the turbo cars, a separate inlet hose feeds the compressor. Your intercooler plumbing carries charge air under boost and has to seal while the engine moves on its mounts. And on the older turbo platforms, a recirculation hose routes bypassed air back into the intake.

Factory rubber does all of this adequately for about a decade. Then it does not. That is the part nobody plans for.

What Just Went OVERTAKE Blue?

Radiator Hose Kits

Six kits, covering the widest platform spread of anything in this drop. These are 5-ply silicone with fiber reinforcement between each layer, 3D scanned off the factory hoses so they drop in without trimming or kinking, and they ship with stainless steel high-torque clamps.

This is the category where the failure mode is genuinely expensive. A dry-rotted factory hose does not warn you. It splits on the highway and you are watching the temp gauge climb with nowhere to pull over.

Post MAF Hose Kits

Five kits. This is the hose between your airbox and the engine, and the factory piece is a corrugated rubber accordion. Those folds exist so the hose can flex during assembly on the production line, but every fold is a pocket that interrupts airflow right after the air passes the MAF sensor.

The OVERTAKE version is 5-ply reinforced silicone with a smooth interior and tapered ends sized to the factory openings, so there is no diameter step where the air transitions. It is also one of the most visible parts in this entire list, which is why it tends to be the piece people buy first when they are building a color theme.

Silicone Turbo Inlet Hoses

Two, both for the EJ turbo cars. This one replaces the factory accordion inlet feeding the compressor. It is 5-ply silicone reinforced with steel wire so it holds shape under vacuum instead of collapsing, and the silicone handles engine bay heat better than the rubber piece it replaces.

Intercooler Plumbing

Four parts here, all for the top mount intercooler cars, and this is the section most people do not realize exists. Charge air under boost has to get from the turbo through the Y-pipe, through the intercooler, and out to the throttle body, and every one of those connections is a coupler that eventually goes hard, oil soaked, or leaky.

The couplers are 5-ply fiber-reinforced silicone, which matters more here than anywhere else in this list. A coupler that distorts under boost is a boost leak, and a boost leak on these cars is a week of chasing a check engine light.

Bypass Valve Recirculation Hose

One part, and the smallest thing in this drop. It routes bypassed air back into the intake on the older turbo cars. Nobody buys this one for performance. People buy it because it is the last tired-looking rubber piece in an otherwise finished bay.

Why OVERTAKE Blue?

Because it is our color, and because it is the same blue everywhere we put it.

That sounds like a small thing until you have tried to build a color themed engine bay out of parts from four different brands. Everyone's blue is a slightly different blue. You get a hose that reads purple next to a bracket that reads navy, and the whole effect falls apart under the hood light.

OVERTAKE Blue is consistent across the lineup. The silicone matches the paint, the paint matches the hard parts. If you have already put OVERTAKE Blue somewhere on your car, or you are planning to, everything in this list will land in the same place.

And if you are matching to something you already own that is not an OVERTAKE part, our MaxxMatch touch-up paint is the same blue in a can, which gives you a way to bring a bracket or a cover into the theme without hunting for a part that happens to be sold in the right shade.

Does the Color Change Anything Else?

No. This is worth stating plainly because it is the question we would ask too.

An OVERTAKE Blue hose is the same hose as the red one and the black one. Same 5-ply construction, same reinforcement, same fitment, same clamps in the box, same price. The color is pigment in the silicone, not a different product. Blue does not run hotter, does not cost more, and does not fit differently.

Mix colors if you want. There is no rule that says a bay has to be all one thing, and plenty of the cleanest builds we see run black on the cooling side and color on the intake where it actually shows.

What If You Do Not See Your Car in That List?

Then you are exactly the person this post is for.

Eighteen parts went OVERTAKE Blue. That is not everything we make out of silicone, it is the first batch. There are radiator hose kits for the Crosstrek, the Impreza, the non-XT Forester, and the 2020 and up Outback and Legacy that are still red and black only. There is a second throttle body coupler for the 2008 through 2021 WRX, Forester XT, Legacy GT, and Outback XT that is not part of this drop either.

So if you own a Subaru and you did not think we made anything for it, check. The odds are better than you think, and the color options are still expanding.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does OVERTAKE Blue match across different products?

Yes. It is the same blue on the silicone, on the paint, and on the hard parts. That is the point of having a house color.

Does the blue version cost more than red or black?

No. Same price across every color option on every part in this list. The color is an option, not an upcharge.

Can I mix colors in the same engine bay?

Of course. Every part is sold individually and the color choice is per part. A common approach is color on the parts that are visible with the hood up and black on the ones buried behind the intake.

Is the silicone hose actually better than the factory rubber, or is this just for looks?

Both, depending on the part. On the cooling side it is a genuine durability upgrade, because factory rubber hoses dry rot and split on a schedule and silicone does not age the same way. On the intercooler couplers it is about holding shape under boost instead of distorting. On something like the recirculation hose, honestly, it is mostly that the OEM piece looks rough and this one does not. We are not going to pretend otherwise.

What if my Subaru is not in the list above?

Check the site anyway. OVERTAKE makes silicone parts for platforms outside this eighteen, including several radiator hose kits that are currently red and black only. This drop is the first batch in OVERTAKE Blue, not the full catalog.
