Description
Unlock significant performance gains with the iE Polymer Intake System designed specifically for the Audi B9 and B9.5 (80A) Q5 2.0T models. Engineered to provide up to 10-20 horsepower over the stock setup when paired with upgraded tuning, this intake system combines advanced airflow technology and premium construction for a seamless balance of power, sound, and reliability.
Manufactured using a rotomolding process, the polymer intake features superior material consistency with strong structural integrity, uniform wall thickness, and excellent heat resistance. This ensures durability and optimal thermal insulation—critical factors in maintaining cool, dense air delivery to your turbocharger.
The intake’s internal design is the result of extensive application-specific engineering tailored to the Audi B9 platform. Featuring a large 5” high-flow air filter, an integrated velocity stack, and a carefully sculpted internal volume, this system maximizes laminar airflow while minimizing drag and turbulence at the turbocharger inlet. The built-in velocity stack efficiently channels air, improving throttle response and overall engine efficiency.
A unique multiple-pressure zone design allows the intake to draw fresh air from both high-pressure zones (front grill) and low-pressure areas through the filter cover when additional air demand arises, ensuring an unlimited and steady air supply at all power levels.
Beyond performance, the iE Polymer Intake System liberates the hidden turbo and engine sounds suppressed by the restrictive factory airbox. Experience a rich, engaging symphony of throttle response, turbo spool, and blow-off noises that elevate the driving experience.
Precision 3D scanning and CAD modeling have been employed to ensure a perfect fit within the engine bay with factory-style mounting points, allowing for a straightforward installation with common hand tools—no modifications necessary.
Flow bench testing validates consistent airflow improvements of up to +70 CFM over the stock intake, translating directly into tangible power gains and enhanced performance responsiveness. Please note, this intake system is not compatible with hybrid turbo models or Right-Hand Drive (ROW) vehicles equipped with a MAF sensor.
