The VF-Engineering big turbo kits took countless hours of R&D and testing. The induction pipework, especially the air intake design was critical to achieve optimal driveability under part throttle, full throttle, and deceleration. To take advantage of the work performed, VF engineers chose to create a "short-ram" cold air intake for the stock turbo setup as a separate product.
Designed to mount within 30 minutes, this bolt on air intake does not require any permanent modifications (trimming your engine cover as shown in the images is optional). This air intake is designed to improve throttle response, power, and torque when used in conjunction with aftermarket ECU software and/or exhaust system.
Engineered utilizing state of the art CAD CAM 3D modeling, CNC machining and computer controlled Superflow air flow testing. This system is constructed from a single piece (no weld joints) of mandrel bent 18g steel tube with integrated Mass AirFlow sensor (MAF) boss and solid cam cover mounting boss. VF uses K&N air filers for all its induction filter systems including supercharger and turbocharger systems. The intake kit includes an additional MAF heat shield and air filter heat shield with rubber lip to form a seal with the hood. As usual you can expect a clean simple fit from this classic VF-Engineering product.
Features - 10-15 HP Gain (subject to conditions) - 5-10 TQ Gain (subject to conditions) - Single piece mandrel bent 18g steel - Integrated billet MAG flange - Laser cut MAF heat shield - Laser cut air filter heat shield - K&N induction filter - Installs in the factory location - Utilizes factory ram air scoop for increased air flow efficiency
PLEASE NOTE: You must trim your factory engine cover if you wish to retain it with this air intake kit.
