RACINGLINE 'CUP EDITION' INTAKE 2.0TSI EA888.3 MQB
Ref. VWR12G7CUP
The 'Cup Edition' Intake for 2.0T MQB EA888 Gen3 cars such as Golf 7 GTI, GTD and R is a complete open cold air intake system, using a high flow and reusable lifetime triple-layer Trifoam® giant domed filter.
We have developed this open intake system for our Golf 7 Volkswagen Racing Cup car programme - so branded 'Cup Edition', and are now offering it for either race use or as a fast-road upgrade as an alternative to our popular R600 fully-enclosed intake, for those who prefer the induction noise and appearance of an open system.
Cold air is drawn through the standard front panel aperture into the filter chamber area. Intake air temperature is protected from the heat of the engine bay with a fully-formed CAD-designed aluminium heat shield which seals against the underside of the bonnet/hood and extends right underneath the filter chamber area.
PERFORMANCE
/// Through keeping intake temperatures as low as possibly, and greatly improving airflow into the engine, more power is produced, turbo lag is reduced and better fuel efficiency is achieved.
/// Turbocharger spool can drop nearly 500 RPMs, reducing turbo lag and creating faster turbo response.
/// Our development has shown that a high-flow intake system on the Golf 7 / MQB EA888 engines really only gives worthwhile gains once power outputs reach over 300bhp – so this intake is best combined with a remap.
/// Our testing on the Cup Edition Intake has given gains of 16bhp on a Stage 1 car, or around 5% more effective peak power compared with the standard factory air box. Further testing on cars up to 360bhp and beyond shows further increased power improvements from the Intake system, as the standard air box and filter reaches and exceeds its airflow limit.
/// As a race-bred intake system, the rich induction noise is clear as soon as you first accelerate hard. With the increased airflow from this system, the sound of the diverter valve opening when you lift between gears is much more noticeable. However volume levels are well-contained, and the sound quality is music to the ears of any enthusiastic driver!
