Racingline VWR Turbo Muffler Delete MQB-platform cars using the 1.8T and 2.0T EA888 TSI engines with the IHI turbo
The VWR Turbo Muffler Delete is a simple and cost-effective upgrade for any MQB-platform car using the 1.8T and 2.0T EA888 TSI engines with the IHI turbo.
VWR's Turbo Muffler Delete is a sleek single billet design which replaces the restrictive, power-robbing OEM part with a smooth, turbulence free air path exiting the turbo.
What does it do? The standard part is located on the outlet of the turbo compressor and is simply designed to reduce engine bay acoustics. Whilst it subdues the harmonic noises generated by the turbo, it also adds in disruptive turbulence to the airflow right where you don't want it.
By replacing the standard part with the VWR Turbo Muffler Delete, you’ll replace this restrictive section with a straight, uninterrupted piece. The result: better boost response giving a little more power, all the while being able to actually hear your turbo working
Key Tech Specs:
Compatibility:
The VWR Turbo Muffler Delete is compatible with all factory IHI turbos used in the MQB EA888 engined 1.8T and 2.0T cars.
Power Gains:
By smoothing the airflow path out of the turbocharger, eliminating the restriction and turbulence caused by the OEM part, a small but useful power gain is made.
Sound Quality:
Any enthusiast wants to hear their engine working - and the VWR Turbo Muffler Delete will allow your turbo to join in, with a gentle improvement in turbo sound quality.
Matched Componentry:
The VWR Turbo Muffler Delete is perfectly matched with other RacingLine parts - power and response gains are especially worthwhile when combined with the VWR Turbo Inlet Pipe and R600 Cold Air Intake.
Simple Fitting:
Fitting is very straightforward. The kit is installed in around 30
minutes using just hand tools. And easily returned to standard, should you ever wish.
High Quality:
CNC constructed from T6
6061 aircraft grade aluminum and hard anodized in gloss black to reduce wear. The white laser-etched RacingLine logo is the final touch.
