Description
The IE Cold Air Intake System for the Volkswagen Atlas VR6 transforms your SUV’s driving dynamics by unlocking the raw, signature growl of the VR6 engine while significantly improving airflow, power, and throttle response. Precision-engineered using cutting-edge motorsport design principles and advanced CAD modeling, this intake delivers high-performance gains with a refined OEM+ fit and finish.
Engineered for Maximum Performance and Sound
The stock VW Atlas airbox is built to silence the natural tone of the VR6 and restrict airflow to meet efficiency and noise compliance standards. The IE Performance Intake replaces this compromise with a full-width ram air scoop, high-flow 5” filter, and integrated velocity stack to optimize airflow and elevate your driving experience. This results in a substantial +134 CFM increase over the factory intake, bringing your Atlas to life with improved power, sharper throttle response, and that classic VR6 soundtrack.
Motorsport-Inspired Design Elements
-
Massive 5" Pleated Cotton Air Filter:
Delivers exceptional airflow and filtration capacity for peak performance across all RPM ranges. -
Built-In Velocity Stack Bellmouth:
A true motorsport feature integrated into the aluminum heatshield to smoothly guide airflow from the filter into the throttle body, reducing turbulence and power loss. -
Full-Width Ram Air Heat Shield:
Black powder-coated aluminum shield spans the front clip and channels cool, high-pressure air from the grille directly into the filter, while isolating the intake from engine bay heat. -
Digital 3D-Scanned Precision Fit:
Engineered using 3D scanning to create an exact digital model of the engine bay for a flawless, factory-like fit and easy installation. -
Premium Materials & Hardware:
Features stainless hardware, multi-ply silicone couplers with stop-flat edges, high-quality clamps, and a laser-etched stainless logo plate for long-lasting durability and style.
Optional Harsh Climate Filter Upgrade (Sold Separately)
For those who venture off the beaten path, the optional IE Harsh Climate Filter Kit provides added protection. Designed for extreme environments like dirt roads and sandy beaches, it includes:
-
Enhanced 8-pleat filter design
-
Pre-oiled cotton media
-
Protective pre-filter sock
Together, these offer superior filtration performance and peace of mind, even in the most demanding conditions.
That Iconic VR6 Sound, Unleashed
Bring back the addictive growl that made the VR6 legendary. Unlike the factory airbox that completely mutes intake sound, the IE intake system is acoustically tuned to enhance engine note, turbo spool, and throttle engagement. It’s not just an intake—it’s an experience.
Quick & Easy Installation
Designed for the DIY enthusiast, the IE intake installs in about an hour using standard tools, with no cutting or permanent modifications required. Factory-style mounts ensure secure placement and trouble-free fitment.
