The 1.8T & 2.0T factory coolant hose is designed to be routed over the top of the factory intake system. However, when routed underneath the intake, it's far more aesthetically appealing. The APR coolant hose replaces the factory unit and routes cleanly under the intake and around the APR catch can without kinking or adding extra stress to the mounting points.
