About this product
Integrated Engineering's carbon fiber intake system replaces the factory 2.5T airbox on the Audi RS3 and TT RS with a one-piece, leak-free carbon fiber housing built to motorsport standards. A massive pleated air filter, an integrated velocity stack, and 4-inch inlet piping work together to let the turbo pull in more air with less restriction, all the way across the powerband.
The vented access panel on the airbox lid is a functional detail, not just styling. IE tested it against a solid panel and measured a real flow increase, so the intake keeps breathing even under sustained high-RPM load. Every intake also ships with a matching heat shield for the inlet pipe, protecting the extra volume of colder air from engine bay heat soak.
Important Compatibility Information
This intake bolts directly to the factory turbo inlet or to Integrated Engineering's own Turbo Inlet Pipe with no modification. For non-IE aftermarket 4-inch turbo inlets, IE offers a separate silicone adapter, though a direct fit is not guaranteed with every brand.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this intake require a specific turbo inlet pipe?
No. It fits directly to the factory turbo inlet or to Integrated Engineering's own Turbo Inlet Pipe. A separate silicone adapter is available for non-IE 4-inch inlets.
Do I need a tune to see a power gain?
Dyno testing on a Stage 2 ECU tune showed gains of 25+ whp over the stock airbox. The intake also improves airflow and turbo sound on a stock ECU.
How long does installation take?
Around one hour with basic hand tools and no permanent modifications.
