With extensive background in engineering the finest in Performance Software, Unitronic developed an intake system that maximizes performance on the Tiguan MK2 equipped with the 2.0 TSI Gen3B engine.
This translates into a complete Cold Air Intake System that is sure to perform to the maximum, providing increased air velocity, and throttle response, while also decreasing air intake temperatures and turbo lag.
In addition, Unitronic's Cold Air Intake will enhance the sound of your turbocharger and diverter valve.
Features / Benefits
- Optimized Design for Maximum Performance:
- Unitronic specifically developed its air intake system to provide increased air velocity, and throttle response, while also decreasing air intake temperatures and turbo lag.
- 2/2 Twill Prepreg Carbon Fiber Weave:
- High quality material to give you a lightweight, durable and resistant airbox.
- Stainless Steel Hardware:
- Rust resistant hardware that will outlast your vehicle.
- Quality Silicone Components:
- Multi ply silicone turbo inlet hose is strong enough to avoid collapsing when the engine is under hard acceleration.
- Autoclave Construction:
- The curing process is completed in an autoclave to eliminate resin voids thus ensuring a strong component. A UV and heat resistant clear coat is then added on top of the carbon fiber to protect it against discoloration and give it a nice, smooth surface finish.
