APR Open PEX Intake System – 1.8T/2.0T MQB

The APR Open Carbon Fiber Intake System is the ultimate intake system for the 1.8T/2.0T Engine! Eve maximized performance and sound dramatically by reducing pressure drop and increasing airflow. This translates to more horsepower and torque and less physical strain on the turbocharger. The system looks great sounds amazing and produces more horsepower and torque you can feel. Our beautiful carbon fiber intake system does away with the closed Airbox design and uses a massive 7washable and reusable cotton filter with a frontal inlet and 4rear outlet. This was necessary to limit pressure drop across the factory system and maximize airflow while allowing you to fully hear the engine breathe! The massive filter provides excellent filtration. By Oversizing the filter were able to limit pressure drop without sacrificing filtration. This is made possible through the use of greatly increased filter surface area. Carbon fiber not only looks great but it allows us to make a complex and organic heat shield shape that keeps hot air pushed through the frontal radiator away from the intake tract. Furthermore carbon fiber allows us to limit wall thickness on the intake pipe maximizing the pipes internal diameter and thus airflow. Lastly carbon fiber retains heat less than other materials such as metal making it ideal for performance.
