Cobb 22-23 VW Golf R (MK8) / 22-24 Audi S3 (8Y) Redline Carbon Fiber Intake System

The Cobb Redline Carbon Fiber Intake System replaces the factory airbox on 2022-2023 VW Golf R (MK8) and 2022-2024 Audi S3 (8Y) with a high-flow carbon fiber tract for unrestricted airflow. Dyno-tested gains deliver up to 12 whp and 12 ft-lbs torque with Cobb SF Tune, plus sharper throttle response and aggressive induction sound. This direct-fit system uses premium materials for reliable performance on EA888 Gen 4 2.0T engines.

Key Features

  • Redline Carbon Fiber Tube: 3.5-inch diameter, pre-preg 1018-series carbon fiber construction with smooth interior walls promotes laminar airflow and reduces weight versus stock plastic.
  • Elite Dry Filter: Massive conical centrifugal baffle filter provides high airflow (up to 200% more than OEM) while trapping dirt for long service intervals.
  • CNC Aluminum MAF Housing: Precision-machined for exact fit to stock mass air flow sensor, ensuring accurate readings and no check engine lights.
  • Powder-Coated Heat Shield: Insulates incoming air from engine bay heat, maintaining cooler denser air charge for consistent power.
  • Premium Hardware: Stainless steel clamps and backing plate secure components with corrosion resistance and vibration-proof hold.

Product Notes

  • EPA compliant for all 50 states no emissions tampering.
  • Reuses select factory couplers and hardware for simple swap.

Installation Notes

  • Professional installation recommended.
  • Bolt-on install completes in under 1 hour with basic hand tools no cutting or permanent modifications.
