Carbonio manufacters high quality carbon fiber intakes for popular European applications. Carbonio's intake systems are unique in that the actual intake pipe itself is constructed of carbon fiber. Benefits of a carbon fiber intake pipe include: Low Thermal Conductivity Versatility Strength Aesthetics Intake Production: The final shape for each Carbonio system is first drawn on the same CATIA software which is utilized by several Formula One teams for critical component design. Once drawn on CATIA, the intake design is transferred to a hardened steel mould, via a CNC milling machine. Because of the manufacturing process utilized, production of the intake tract is both time consuming and costly. Unlike most commercially available carbon components, which are manufactured using a wet-lay up procedure, the Carbonio CAI is produced using techniques usually reserved for the aerospace and motorsport industries.The various carbon fiber and thermal barrier layers are hand laid in the mould, vacuum bagged, and baked in an autoclave for several hours. This process creates an ultra-strong component with unmatched production tolerances and finish quality. Features: Increases horsepower and torque Improves throttle response Decreases turbo 'lag' Unique plenum design eliminates water ingestion concerns Flattens torque curve (engine is less 'peaky') Improves fuel economy Enhances engine's volumetric efficiency Enhances sound of turbo diverter valve Works with all aftermarket diverter, dump, or blowoff valves Installs in about an hour Maintains all factory emissions components Fits both manual and automatic vehicles Unique Thermal Barrier composite construction ensures low inlet temperatures Kit Includes: Aerospace grade carbon fibre main intake section with show quality finish Special oil-less filter eliminating oil build up related MAF failures Thermal barrier coating (repels 80% of radiant heat) Complete photographic instructions All necessary hardware included This Carbonio Intake Fits: 1997-2001 Audi A4 1.8T

 

Applications: Audi A4 (B5) 1997 - 2001
