Performance Air Intake for VW Jetta GLI 2006-2008 with 2.0L Turbo

Sharpen Throttle Response & Turbo Spool on Your Mk5 Jetta GLI EA113 FSI

Who It’s For: Designed specifically for 2006-2008 VW Jetta GLI owners running the EA113 FSI engine family.

The Problem: The EA113 FSI is a stout power plant, but Volkswagen designed the factory airbox to be integrated directly into the heavy plastic engine cover. This creates a restrictive air path that traps heat and chokes the turbocharger. If you’ve ever tried to do a simple spark plug change, you know that removing that bulky, brittle factory cover is a major headache, often leading to broken vacuum lines or cracked plastic tabs.

The Solution: We engineered this intake to delete the restrictive factory engine-cover airbox. By utilizing a mandrel-bent aluminum pipe and a high-flow dry cone filter, we provide a direct path for cool air to reach the turbo. This setup corrects the factory design flaws of the EA113 FSI, delivering reliable performance and a much-needed increase in induction sound.

Why This is the Ultimate Upgrade

• Turbo Efficiency: By reducing intake restriction, your K03 turbocharger spools faster and stays in the power band longer without the "choking" effect of the stock accordion hose.
• Dry Filter Technology: This kit features a washable dry cone filter. Unlike oiled filters, this will not foul your sensitive Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor, which is a common and expensive failure point on these Volkswagens.
• Maintenance Friendly: Once installed, you no longer need to wrestle with the massive factory engine cover for basic top-end engine work. The included aluminum bracket ensures the intake stays secured even under heavy engine rocking.
