Upgrade your MQB-platform engine bay with the Racingline High-Flow Turbo Inlet Elbow, engineered to eliminate the airflow bottleneck present in the factory plastic component. Designed for Volkswagen Golf MK7 GTI and R, Audi A3 and S3, TT/TTS MK3, Cupra 5F, and Skoda Octavia vRS models equipped with 1.8T or 2.0T EA888 engines, this accessory directly addresses a common performance limitation: the restrictive geometry of the stock inlet that chokes air delivery even after installing an upgraded intake system.

Benefits & Practical Advice

  • Replace the restrictive factory bend with a smooth, single-billet path that reduces turbulence and accelerates turbo spool times for noticeably faster throttle response.
  • The increased internal volume complements cold air intakes or aftermarket charge pipes, ensuring your modified setup delivers its full potential without being choked at the turbo flange.
  • During installation, clean all mating surfaces before torquing hoses, and always use quality worm-drive or constant-tension clamps to maintain a vacuum-sealed boost pathway.

Technical Specifications

  • Construction: CNC-machined aluminium billet with a durable black finish
  • Total inner diameter: approximately 65 mm
  • Turbocharger input inner diameter: approximately 53 mm (OEM typically measures around 48 mm)
  • Intake side inner diameter: approximately 65 mm (OEM typically measures around 62 mm)
  • Compatible turbos: IS12, IS20, and IS38 IHI units
  • Venue: Front placement, direct OEM mounting point replacement with straightforward plug-and-play installation

Package includes: 1 x Turbo Inlet Elbow

Important Note: This upgrade removes the restrictive OEM muffler-style inlet feature. Verify clearances around surrounding components before securing the new elbow to maintain optimal boost integrity across daily driving and track application.
