PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Considerable effort has been invested in crafting a comprehensive performance-enhancing intake solution tailored for the Supercharged 3.0 TFSI engine found in the B8 and B8.5 iterations of the S4 and S5. As a result, the S34 Carbon Fiber Intake, designed for Audi B8/8.5 S4/S5 3.0 TFSI, provides discerning enthusiasts with tangible increases in horsepower and torque, a more pronounced induction sound and supercharger whine, and an aesthetically pleasing carbon fiber heat shield designed to prevent the entry of hot air from the engine bay into the intake.
Throughout the meticulous development process, numerous designs were conceptualized, prototyped, and rigorously tested. This rigorous approach ensures that the S34 Carbon Fiber Intake not only delivers quantifiable performance improvements but also boasts impeccable fitment. The end result is an optimized open-airbox design leveraging the factory fresh air duct inlet to direct cool outside air to the filter. This spacious airbox configuration accommodates a substantial 4" inlet conical air filter, free from restrictive shrouding, and guides air through a CFD-optimized 4-ply silicone inlet hose, promoting a smooth increase in air velocity towards the throttle body.
MINIMIZING UNNECESSARY FILTER SHROUDING
034Motorsport dedicates its efforts to optimizing every facet of the intake system, considering a wide array of variables and avoiding compromises. A pivotal element in achieving a high-flowing performance intake lies in ensuring that air can effortlessly circulate around and enter the filter. If airflow encounters restrictions around the filter, it hampers its ability to reach the filter, diminishing overall flow. Many aftermarket kits make the mistake of incorporating an excessively large filter into an enclosure ill-suited for its size, resulting in the filter being choked and reduced in effectiveness. This situation often arises when a product prioritizes one variable at the expense of others.
In response, 034Motorsport undertook extensive testing and meticulously refined its intake design to facilitate maximum airflow around the air filter, ensuring optimal airflow both to and through the filter. The end product is a meticulously calibrated filter housed in an appropriately sized enclosure, fostering peak airflow and performance while maintaining OEM-level filtering standards—an achievement that represents the ultimate objective for any intake system. It is advised to approach with caution any intake system that solely emphasizes the size of the air filter without considering the adverse effects of inadequate airflow caused by shrouding.
MAXIMIZING AIRFLOW
The engineers at 034Motorsport initiated the design process with the development of a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)-optimized 4-Ply silicone intake tube. This tube serves as a direct and high-performance replacement for the factory plastic accordion/sound deadening hose. Leveraging CAD software and 3D scanning technology, 034Motorsport meticulously fine-tuned the cross-sectional area of the intake tube, all while taking into consideration the constraints imposed by the available space.
The outcome is nothing short of a functional masterpiece—a component that maximizes performance within the confines of the factory space limitations. Not only does it showcase an aesthetically pleasing design, but it also incorporates smooth transitions to ensure optimal airflow directed towards the throttle body. This blend of engineering precision and artistic functionality results in a superior product that enhances overall intake system performance.
PERFORMANCE AIR FILTER
The S34 Carbon Fiber Intake incorporates a high-flow conical air filter equipped with a double-layer pleated cotton filtration medium, proficient in capturing particles as minuscule as 5 Microns. This advanced air filter design enhances airflow by expanding the filtration surface, ensuring both increased flow and superior filtration quality. Rigorous testing, even in applications exceeding 800HP, demonstrates minimal restriction, underscoring its superior OEM-level air filtration standards.
Setting itself apart from other intake kits, where air filters may be left unsupported and prone to erratic movement, 034Motorsport engineers have devised an ingenious air filter support system. This not only prevents unwanted filter movement but also allows for flexibility to accommodate engine shifts during varying load conditions. An additional advantage is the stability of the air shroud, eliminating any undesirable rubbing on other engine compartment components—a common concern in many other market designs.
PRESSURE DROP IMPROVEMENTS
Pressure Drop is the difference in ambient air pressure and the air pressure measured at the supercharger inlet across the engine's rpm range. The higher the pressure drop at any given rpm, the more restrictive the intake system is, reducing airflow.
Intake Configuration | Chart Color | Pressure Drop |
