The VWR Intake System is a ram air style intake, meaning the opening is connected to the factory inlet which draws air directly from the leading edge of the hood. Hot engine bay heat is deflected by the intake housing meaning intake air is only drawn from outside the engine bay.

The race bred nature of the intake system is noticeable instantly upon acceleration. The black aluminum housing, with VWR logo, helps maintain sane engine volume levels compared to an open element system, however make no mistake, you will hear the turbocharger compressing massive amounts of air as the engine is able to breathe for the first time. Releasing the throttle under boost will result in a classic turbocharger woosh as the factory diverter valve opens, releasing compressed air from the intercooler piping back to the uncompressed side of the turbocharger.
