The MKIV GTI is especially responsive to airflow modifications because of its turbocharged 4-cylinder engine. Small changes in air density can effect huge changes in engine power & smoothness. Increase air flow rate and density for your VW with the ECS engineered XAS Cold Air Intake System. The system uses a mandrel bent 76.2mm (3.0") diameter aluminum pipe, completely replacing the restrictive OE air box and intake snorkel. Because air is drawn primarily from outside the engine bay, air temperatures are 30-60°F cooler, increasing cylinder pressure for reliable power gains.

The kit contains everything to keep your project going - simply drill out the old thread, tap out the hole with the correct sized tap, and screw in a new insert with the installation tool.
