Description
Maximize the performance of your VW or Audi 2.0T FSI (EA113) or TSI (EA888 Gen 1/2) engine with the IE Cast Aluminum Intake Manifold. Designed using advanced CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) technology and tested in-house, this performance manifold offers gains in horsepower and torque across the entire RPM range — without compromising turbo spool or drivability.
Crafted from durable cast aluminum and finished in a sleek black powder coat, the IE manifold replaces the restrictive, failure-prone factory plastic unit with a true motorsport-grade solution that delivers consistent airflow, increased plenum volume, and precisely tuned velocity stack runners. Whether you’re on a stock turbo or a big-turbo build, this manifold unlocks hidden power and supports aggressive tuning.

Performance Highlights
Flow-Tuned Velocity Stack Runners
The IE 2.0T manifold is the only intake manifold on the market featuring CFD-optimized bellmouth velocity stacks. These runners are tuned for ideal airflow velocity and resonance, increasing mid- and top-end power without sacrificing spool time or throttle response.
Massive Plenum Volume
With a generous 2.4L internal plenum, airflow is evenly distributed to all cylinders, helping stabilize air delivery under high-load, high-RPM conditions. This means more consistent combustion and more power.
Quick Spool & Broad Powerband
Unlike many aftermarket manifolds, IE’s design ensures no loss in low-end torque or turbo spool, thanks to careful tuning of runner length and diameter. Expect solid gains from 3000 RPM all the way to redline (7500 RPM+), with larger gains for big turbo applications.
Direct OEM Fitment
Each manifold is tailored to retain factory fitment without modification to vacuum lines, emissions systems, fuel rails, or coolant hoses. Application-specific install kits are available and include throttle body adapters, breather fittings, and brackets.
Required Supporting Components
To run this intake manifold properly, the following components are required:
-
IE Manifold ECU Software Tune
Custom ECU software recalibrates ignition timing, fuel delivery, and cold-start maps to accommodate runner flap delete and new airflow characteristics.-
Examples:
-
MK5 GTI Stage 2 IM Tune
-
MK6 GTI Stage 1 IM Tune
-
MK6 Golf R Stage 2 Pro IM Tune
-
-
-
IE Intake Manifold Install Kit
Includes throttle body adapters, vacuum fittings, breather lines, and hardware. Kits are engine and chassis-specific.
Water/Meth Ready
Pre-drilled and tapped 1/8” NPT ports on each runner support individual water/methanol injection (WMI) nozzles. For non-WMI users, black anodized plugs are included. Compatible with elongated Aquamist nozzles.
Applications & Fitment
Requires matching install kit and ECU software tune.
