Overview
The EA888 Gen4 in the MK8 GTI runs a factory intake system that sacrifices airflow for refinement. This aluminium intake provides a more direct path to the turbocharger, improving induction sound and supporting the airflow needs of tuned MK8 applications.
Why Upgrade?
- More direct airflow to the EA888 Gen4 turbocharger than the OEM intake
- Improved induction sound and more turbo character
- 6061 aluminium construction over the factory plastic assembly
- Direct replacement — no permanent modification required
Engineering Focus
Built from 6061 aluminium for improved durability and heat management over the factory plastic inlet. Sized for the EA888 Gen4 in both standard and stage 1 tuned trim.
