Overview
This Carbon Fibre Intake System replaces the EA888 Gen3 factory inlet assembly with a more direct, less restricted path to the turbocharger. Carbon Fibre construction keeps intake air temperatures lower than the OEM plastic housing, and the gloss finish adds a premium Engine Bay appearance.
- Improved Airflow to the EA888 Gen3 turbocharger over the factory intake
- Reduced intake air temperature compared to the OEM plastic assembly
- Sharper Induction Sound and more turbo character
- Gloss carbon finish for a clean Engine Bay
Engineering Focus
The Carbon Fibre tube runs from the filtration element directly to the turbocharger inlet — removing the airbox and factory ducting that restricts and warms the intake charge. Sized for the IS38 and IS20 turbocharger found across the MK7 platform.
Driving Experience
The factory intake on the EA888 Gen3 was sized for cabin refinement, not for feeding an IS38 or IS20 under load. Carbon Fibre construction shortens the path to the turbo and keeps the charge cooler — a small change that shows up as a sharper, more immediate Throttle Response, with a gloss finish that looks the part too. Note: this carbon intake fits the shared MQB AWD 2.0T platform across Golf GTI/R MK7 and A3/S3/TT/TTS 8V — same Engine Bay, same fit.…
