This design makes upgrading your turbo easy, simply swap the adapter out for one of our hybrid-size inlets and go. This is the first and last intake you'll need to buy for your Gen 4!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTitanium... why?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen developing our MQB intake, we knew we had some choices in front of us. The decision to go with CP1 titanium was not one we took lightly. Titanium is not a cheap material to work with, but ignoring the benefits of this aerospace material was not something we could overlook.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTitanium is what we like to call \"functionally beautiful\". Aside from being one of the most lightweight metals available, titanium has a very low heat transfer rate (\u003cem\u003e16 W\/m-K\u003c\/em\u003e) compared to aluminum (\u003cem\u003e152 W\/m K\u003c\/em\u003e), which means it is highly resistant to heat transfer from the engine bay. Intake temperatures play a key role in power production, so we opted to go straight to the source by choosing a material that will naturally keep intake temps down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0088\/3969\/2384\/files\/ThermalConductivity_W_mK_Alu6061vsCP1Titanium_2.png?v=1701885219\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to its excellent thermal properties, titanium has a much higher strength-to-weight ratio than aluminum, meaning that much thinner tubing can be used in our intakes. This means larger internal diameters when compared to aluminum with the same outer diameter. Our 3.5\" titanium intake, as a result, boasts a 5% increase in intake area when compared to a 3.5\" aluminum intake. A higher strength-to-weight ratio also means lighter parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTitanium Grade 4, also known as titanium CP1, is the strongest of all commercially pure titanium grades. It combines excellent corrosion resistance with good strength and toughness. This means that your intake will continue to look beautiful well past your engine's expiration date. The lack of paint or powder coating also ensures that the finish will hold up for the long run! Occasional cleaning is all that's required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull 89mm (3.5\") titanium intake\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGAS billet turbo inlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3.5” turbo inlet coupler\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack powder-coated stainless steel heat shield\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll required hardware for installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitment: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMK8 Golf R 2.0T EA888.4\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8Y S3 2.0T EA888.4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eWill not fit cars with a mass air flow sensor in the intake\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Garage Auto Sports","offers":[{"title":"O.G.
