High-Performance Cold Air Intake System for VW & Audi (2015–2025) 1.8T / 2.0T – Enhanced Boost Response & Sound
Upgrade your turbocharged Volkswagen or Audi’s induction system with this precision-engineered Performance Cold Air Intake System. Specifically developed for the modern 1.8T and 2.0T engine platforms, this system replaces restrictive factory air box components to provide a high-volume, streamlined path for air to reach the turbocharger. This optimization results in sharper throttle response and stronger acceleration under boost, while unlocking a more engaging and audible turbo induction sound.
This intake is designed for drivers seeking a functional performance upgrade that maintains the refined drivability and mechanical reliability of the MQB and updated platforms. The system utilizes a high-performance washable filtration media and durable, heat-resistant components to ensure the engine receives a consistent supply of cooler, denser air. By reducing intake restriction, this kit allows the engine to breathe more freely, enhancing the natural balance of power and efficiency for both stock and lightly modified setups.
