Racingline Air Intake Silicone Hose | MK7 Golf GTI Golf R & A3 | 1.8T & 2.0T | VWR12G7R600ITBLA
The VWR High-Flow Turbo Inlet Pipe is for all MQB 2.0 and 1.8 TSI cars with the EA888 Gen3 engine. The inlet has been engineered to increase air flow through to the turbocharger as the perfect compliment our VWR R600 Cold Air Intake or even the standard airbox.
A simple fitment, it replaces the entire restrictive rear factory plastic "bellows’ pipe between the airbox and the turbocharger inlet pipe with an attractive high-gloss red, blue or black finish.
Our Turbo Inlet Pipe is a large diameter smooth-flowing silicon hose, crucially with enough compliance to allow for adequate engine movement without causing damage to the intake. There are solid turbo inlet pipes on the market, but without this compliance as the engine rocks under power, then something has to give - with a solid pipe it will either be your intake, or the pipe itself.
Back-to-back comparisons with the factory pipe on our flow bench reveals an impressive improvement in airflow, and makes a great compliment to the R600 intake.
Compatibility
The VWR High-Flow Turbo Inlet Pipe is compatible with all factory turbos used in the MQB EA888 engine cars, and at the other end, fits onto the VWR R600 intake, or the factory airbox.
Power Gains
By smoothing the airflow path out of the airbox into the turbocharger, a small but useful power gain is made, especially when combined with the R600 cold air intake.
flexible
The engine can move considerably under load and so the factory turbo inlet pipe has to allow some flex. This is critical - a solid pipe simply does not allow for engine rock, meaning your intake will be damaged!
STRONG
Constructed from reinforced high quality silicon, the Turbo Inlet Pipe offers great rigidity to prevent deformation under load.
SIMPLE FITTING
Fitting is very straightforward. Simply remove the restrictive factory pipe and replace it with the new VWR Turbo Inlet Pipe. And easily returned to standard, should you wish.
GREAT APPEARANCE
As a visible area in the engine bay, the VWR Turbo Inlet Pipe adds to the aesthetics under the bonnet with high-gloss black, red or blue silicon and discreet RacingLine logo in white.
