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 silicon hose connecting the turbocharger to the intake system features a stepped internal lip, resulting in a smooth transition into the turbocharger, and a continuous clamping force hose clamp allows for even clamping pressure around the entire hose. An optional recirculation bung allows customers with upgraded turbochargers to reroute compressed air from the factory location found on vehicles such as the Golf R, Scirocco R, S3, TTS and Cupra R.
