- Type Air Intake
- Vendor Racingline
- SKU VWR12G6GT-1
This cold air intake system is built for A5-platform cars running the 2.0 TSI EA888.1 engine, including the Mk6 Golf GTI, Scirocco and A3. It draws cooler, denser air from outside the engine bay through a fully enclosed gloss black aluminium housing that holds either a large triple-layer TriFoam cone filter or a cotton filter. RacingLine quotes airflow gains of as much as 9% at peak power over the original intake, and says turbo spool can come up to 500rpm earlier in some cases. A silicone hose with a formed internal lip links the intake to the turbo, and the enclosed design keeps induction noise well contained.
