VW Golf MK7 Turbo Inlet Pipes Upgrade Kit Aluminum For EA888 Gen3

Upgrade your EA888 Gen3 engine with the Racingline Performance Turbo Inlet Elbow, a purpose-built aluminum billet upgrade designed for the MQB Golf 7 GTI/R and Audi S3. This high-flow 90-degree inlet replaces the restrictive factory plastic inlet, delivering a smoother, larger-diameter path for air to reach the turbocharger. The result is swifter spool, improved throttle response, and more responsive performance across daily driving and track-ready setups.

Engineered for a straightforward bolt-on fit, the Turbo Inlet Elbow ensures your high-flow intake system can truly breathe. It’s CNC machined from solid aluminum, providing a rigid, consistent airflow path that minimizes turbulence and bottlenecks. By eliminating the OEM inlet’s restrictive bend, this upgrade helps your intake system deliver cooler, denser air to the turbo, unlocking the potential of IS12, IS20, and IS38 IHI turbochargers on a wide range of VW Group applications including Golf MK7 R, S3 8V, A3 8V, TT/TTS MK3, and more.

Color and construction are chosen for durability and performance under pressure. The inlet features a 65 mm inner diameter for the intake side, with a 53 mm input to match turbocharger housings, giving you a robust, free-flowing air path that supports both street use and more aggressive setups. This is the ideal companion to your cold air intake or stock airbox, ensuring you’re not bottlenecked by the factory elbow.

Compatibility is comprehensive for the MQB platform and related 2.0T engines in the VW Group family. It’s suitable for:

• VW Golf MK7 GTI / Golf MK7 2.0T variants
• VW Golf MK7 R and related 2.0T models
• Audi S3 8V Quattro 2.0T, A3 8V 1.8T/2.0T, TT/TTS MK3 2.0T (2014+)
• Seat Leon MK3 1.8T/2.0T, Cupra 5F 1.8T/2.0T
• Skoda Octavia MK3 1.8T/2.0T, vRS 5E 1.8T/2.0T

In short, this elbow is the simple, effective upgrade that lets your turbo and intake system work closer to their true potential—improving airflow, boosting response, and helping your setup perform at a higher level.
