Unitronic Carbon Fiber Intake System with Air Duct For 1.8/2.0 TSI GEN3 MQB

With extensive background in engineering the finest in Performance Software, Unitronic developed an intake system that maximizes performance of vehicles equipped with the 1.8/2.0 TSI Gen3 (MQB) engines.

This translates into a complete Cold Air Intake System that is sure to perform to the maximum, providing increased power, air velocity, and throttle response, while also decreasing air intake temperatures and turbo lag. Unitronic's Carbon Fiber Air Duct also helps to increase power and air flow by taking advantage of both air inlets available in the OEM grill.

In addition, Unitronic's Cold Air Intake will enhance the sound of your turbocharger and diverter valve.

Features / Benefits

• Optimized Design for Maximum Performance:
  Unitronic specifically developed its air intake system to provide increased power, air velocity, and throttle response, while also decreasing air intake temperatures and turbo lag.
• Quality Silicone Components:
  Heavy duty, heat resistant and durable 4-ply silicone hose will not crack or tear overtime.
