The 2.0T FSI/TSI engine in your Audi or VW doesn�t supply enough air volume or provide even airflow to your cylinders, especially with big turbo builds. This difference in air supply and lack of air volume can create drastic differences in air/fuel ratios and create problems that end in disaster. Our new Fabricated Aluminum Intake Manifold, designed right here in-house, increases the volume of your plenum by 53%, reduces cylinder air supply differences down to less than 1%, and offers you the most efficient solution for more power, better throttle response, and airflow possible.

The EA888 Gen1 TSI engine has a well-documented history of intake manifold issues. Failures of the inlet runner control flaps, linkage malfunctions, and poor-quality plastic construction contribute to engine fault codes and negatively impact drivability. Since the engine's iteration in 2008, Volkswagen has implemented multiple intake manifold revisions to address these issues. Among many changes, the latest update (06J133201BH) introduces a notable, somewhat unusual alteration: revised fuel rail mounting geometry. Vehicles equipped with older fuel rail revisions (06J133317J or 06J133317M) must upgrade to the newest fuel rail revision (06J133317AB) to ensure proper fitment and optimal functionality. Unfortunately, the updated fuel rail carries a substantial cost, presenting a significant barrier for enthusiasts attempting to retrofit the latest intake manifold. With this issue in mind, our engineers set out to improve upon the existing fuel rail design, creating a cost-effective, all-in-one update and upgrade! Manufactured from 6061-T6 billet aluminum, this precision-machined rail is guaranteed to outlast its OEM counterpart. What's more, our exclusive design features ported fuel injector and fuel feed passages, ensuring optimal fuel flow up to and into each fuel injector.

Whether you're upgrading your high-horsepower FSI build or planning a preventative pump replacement on your daily driver, choose our High-Performance Water Pump for increased cooling and reliability! To surpass the flow rate of the OE water pump, our engineers focused on refining the pump's impeller. By optimizing the blade angle, shape, curvature, and width, they were able to extract a sizeable increase in flow over the factory design. For even greater efficiency, the impeller is CNC-machined from lightweight billet aluminum. This provides a drastic reduction in weight compared to cast aluminum alternatives and grants a further boost in flow. Using advanced CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulations, the final design delivered an average 14% increase in flow compared to stock! However, with longevity in mind, our engineers didn't stop there. To match the refinement of the impeller, billet aluminum construction was also chosen for the construction of the pump housing. A custom, heavy-duty Viton o-ring was sourced for the pump housing sealing surface, providing increased sealing power, fluid and temperature resistance, as well as durability. A double-row bearing was designed to exceed OEM pump service life, ensuring that this water pump will outlast the competition.

Unlike conventional one-piece rotors, this two-piece design drastically improves heat dissipation by bolting the aluminum rotor hat directly to the cast iron ring. The heat-treated rings undergo a specialized process to minimize internal stress, reducing the likelihood of cracking under extreme braking forces. Additionally, directional curved veins efficiently channel hot air away from the braking surface for faster, more consistent cooling compared to traditional straight-veined designs.

Running a competition-focused B8 S4 I not only have spare parts laying around, but I wanted a car I can drive at local fun events/festival events. Something with bolt-on's only to attract more power to buy and drift Audi's. How do I get even more attention to an Audi drift car? Put 4 people in it! This 2009 Audi A4 2.0t has 4 race seats and the stock engine. K04 turbo was just installed with 034 Motorsports E85 off the shelf tune. This car features ECS parts throughout. Nothing currently custom is installed in the car, other than a tandem legal cage and soon bolt in hand brake solution. This A4 Drift Cab still has working A/c, power windows, Nav and full stereo. Nick named the Cab not for its yellow color (I always wanted an Imola S4) we have some special plans in the works for the car. A lot of this car has been built by my own shop I opened in 2024, Haus of Euro in Tempe,AZ. Most of my team here has driven the car and is actively learning how to drift in this car.
