Integrated Engineering MK5 & MK6 2.0T TSI High Flow Cold Air Intake Kit

This Integrated Engineering high flow cold air intake is the ultimate intake upgrade for your VW Mk5, Mk6, B6 Passat, CC or Audi A3 2.0T TSI

OVERVIEW
Feed your MK5 or MK6 turbo with a supply of cold air with this direct-fit high-flow intake kit. This intake features a generously-sized inlet pipe that connects to the OE mass air flow (MAF) sensor.  The MAF sensor receives high-velocity air fed directly from a 5" bellmouth. Our high-flow bellmouth is neatly housed in a heat shield, which separates the air filter from hot under-hood air, allowing only cold air to be drawn in to the turbo inlet directly from the front of the car.

DIRECT FIT
This air intake kit provides all the necessary piping and couplers to plumb the intake system from the turbo to the MAF and then to the heat shield.  The heat shield installs using the OE grommets for easy maintenance and reliable mounting with no rubbing or interference with other factory parts.

HIGH-FLOW BELLMOUTH
The air intake utilizes a high-flow bellmouth behind the air filter to deliver as much air as possible. This bellmouth design increases the air velocity to the MAF and pulls cold air equally from all directions into the filter. This bellmouth is securely fastened to the heat shield as a clean pass-through providing a solid mount for the air filter and turbo inlet pipe. You have no worry of the intake pipe moving around and causing damage unlike other intake kits on the market, which simply clamp the filter onto the end of the inlet pipe or MAF.  Furthermore, the bellmouth opening allows for a filter with a very large surface area that can support any horsepower goal.  The same filter and bellmouth design has been tested to support over 500HP on our twin-scroll big turbo kits with huge success.

COLD AIR HEAT SHIELD
The IE heat shield is designed to create a thermal barrier blocking all of the radiant heat from the engine bay. Only cold air from the front of the vehicle is drawn into the filter from the opening in the radiator support keeping air intake temperatures as cold as possible. This allows factory placement of the intake to be used without placing the filter lower in the vehicle where it can be subjected to engine harming road debris or fluid.

Identifying Your 2.0T TSI Engine Code
The MK5/MK6 2.0T TSI engine has two different engine codes.  CBFA engine codes are equipped from factory with a secondary air injection (SAI) pump that connects to the factory intake box.  These engine will require a small breather filter for this SAI line when installing an aftermarket intake. CCTA engine codes do not have this SAI pump and does not require this filter.  Identify your engine code using the photos below and choose the correct option in the drop down box above when ordering your intake.
