Please verify your vehicle's model year, engine code, and factory intake configuration before ordering. Volkswagen and Audi used different 2.0T engine and intake configurations across these models and production years.

This intake is listed for EA888.1 2.0T applications. Do not determine compatibility based only on your vehicle having a 2.0T engine.

For EOS, CC, Passat, GLI, Passat Wagon, and Tiguan applications, please verify the exact engine and factory intake layout before purchase.

Before ordering, compare your factory intake system with the product photos and confirm the intake connection, mounting locations, sensor arrangement, and available engine-bay clearance.

Vehicles equipped with an aftermarket turbo inlet, upgraded turbocharger, modified breather system, or other non-factory intake components may require additional fitment verification.

Product Details

Why Upgrade Your Factory Intake?

A performance intake replaces the compatible factory airbox configuration with a more open intake layout using a cone-style performance filter and dedicated intake pipe.

One of the most noticeable changes is the intake sound. The open-element filter configuration can make induction and turbo-related sounds more noticeable during acceleration, giving the vehicle a more engaging performance character.

Actual sound and vehicle response will vary depending on engine configuration, ECU calibration, exhaust setup, turbocharger, and other modifications.
