NEUSPEED's Front Mount Intercooler kit for the VW MkV 2.0T requires absolutely no drilling, cutting or trimming of the metal bumper structure or bumper cover making it the only true bolt-on kit available. The kit includes CNC mandrel bent aluminum piping finished in a wrinkle powder coat finish, constant tension hose clamps, silicone hose couplers and all necessary mounting hardware. The intercooler core is a highly efficient bar and plate design that utilizes flow tested cast aluminum end tanks.
Do not be fooled by kits that claim to have larger cores. They usually require extensive reworking or cutting of the bumper structure and because of the limitations of the OE front bumper opening, parts of those "bigger"cores will have no air flow through them which results in a highly inefficient design. Look at the second picture, you will notice that cores that extend height wise above or below the Neuspeed core will have no airflow because airflow will either be blocked above by the metal structure or blocked below by the opening in the bumper cover.
For owners of the NEUSPEED CAI Extenstion kit (part #65.02.50), purchase of alternate air filter kit part number 65.10.98 is required for installation of the FMIC. (See Link Below)
Fitment of the NEUSPEED FMIC with another vendor's Cold Air Intake kit is not guaranteed.
"Bought em and within an hour I had these items installed and I noticed the sound and performance. I would recommend this package for anyone who is just starting to modify their Jetta."
