Description
The Unitronic Carbon Fiber Intake System for the VW GTI MK8 2.0TSI EVO4 engine is engineered to deliver maximum performance. By increasing air velocity, improving throttle response, lowering intake temperatures, and reducing turbo lag, this intake system enhances both power delivery and engine efficiency. The open-element design also amplifies the sound of your turbocharger and diverter valve for a more aggressive driving experience.
Constructed from high-quality 2/2 twill prepreg carbon fiber with autoclave curing and a UV- and heat-resistant clear coat, the airbox is lightweight, durable, and built to last. Stainless steel hardware and multi-ply silicone components ensure reliable performance even under hard acceleration. Proprietary 3-inch dry cotton filters provide optimal airflow while keeping dust and debris out of your engine.
Oversized airbox inlets, smooth flow transitions, and airbox water drainage provisions ensure maximum efficiency and protection. The system installs directly using OEM mounting locations with Unitronic’s EPDM rubber grommets, offering a secure and precise fit.
