Take your braking to the next level with our Stage 4 Front Big Brake Kit, engineered for enthusiasts who demand maximum stopping power. This high-performance kit includes quality, race-inspired braking components, delivering track-ready performance and precision stopping directly to your vehicle. Each part is designed and tested in-house at ECS Tuning to ensure quality, reliability, and compatibility with your application. At the heart of our kit are massive ECS 18Z 6-piston front brake calipers, which provide exceptional clamping force for consistent, fade-free braking. These calipers work in tandem with large 2-piece floating rotors, which reduce stress on the rotor hat while allowing the friction surface to expand independently under heat. This floating design improves braking leverage and ensures that your rotors maintain optimal performance even under heavy, repeated stops on the street or track. Additionally, our proprietary rotors are cross-drilled and slotted, giving you the perfect balance of durability, performance, and cooling. The slotted surfaces provide improved bite and consistent stopping power, while the cross-drilled pattern allows heat and gases generated during braking to escape, reducing the risk of fade and extending rotor life. Complementing the rotors are ECS EP24 "Enthusiast Performance" brake pads, formulated to deliver aggressive stopping power, smooth engagement, and reliable performance in all conditions.

Take the hassle�and the risk�out of servicing your ignition system with a thoughtfully engineered ground relocation solution. Designed with both performance and practicality in mind, this upgrade allows you to remove your coil packs without ever disturbing the ground connection. That means no more stressing or breaking fragile factory ground wires during routine maintenance, saving you time, frustration, and potential electrical issues down the line. Beyond convenience, this kit is built to maintain a consistent and reliable ground to the valve cover. By preserving proper grounding at all times, it helps reduce unwanted electrical noise and signal interference from surrounding systems�supporting smoother operation and more dependable performance where it matters most. Whether you're performing routine maintenance or dialing in a cleaner, more dependable engine bay, this ground relocation kit offers a refined solution that enhances durability, improves serviceability, and maintains a factory-fresh appearance! *Note* Your vehicle's ignition coil connector part number starts with "8K0" or "4D0". This part number is found on the underside of the connector (see last image for reference). You must identify which connector you have prior to purchase!

Master cylinder braces are a common upgrade to reduce brake booster / master cylinder deflection under sudden, hard braking conditions. This deflection occurs due to the thin firewall material that the brake booster bolts to actually flexing under sudden, hard braking. Our ECS Tuning Master Cylinder Brace was designed and engineered in-house to reduce this deflection which improves brake pedal response while adding confidence in your brake's hydraulic system. Our design requires no permanent modifications to the body or battery tray.

MK5/MK6 GTI, GLI, and Golf R owners know the unreliability of the OEM fans all to well. The factory fan control module is prone to failure, which can lead to overheating that will leave you stranded and potentially damage your engine. The ECS Tuning MK5//MK6 High Flow Cooling Fan Kit remedies these issues. Our in house designed aluminum fan shroud and plug and play harness paired with Spall fans improves reliability, flow and eliminates the ugly plastic OEM fan shroud. When upgrading to our new fan shroud with fresh, cool flowing fans be sure to check the rest of your cooling system! Our ECS Performance radiator is a direct fit radiator with a 20% (TSI) or 65% (FSI / Gen3 TSI) increase in cooling capacity and will help ensure the health of your engine.

Our in-house designed and engineered High Flow Turbo Outlet Pipe Kit features mandrel bent, bead rolled, powdercoated aluminum plumbing from the outlet of the compressor housing directly to the intercooler inlet, along with smoother flowing silicone couplers, stainless steel T-Bolt clamps and all new installation accessories for an easy, direct bolt on installation.

Heat robs performance, which is why modern forced induction platforms use an intercooler to drop the charge air temperatures. However, in upgraded applications, the factory unit just doesn�t cut it. When you�re reaching for more power in your MK5/MK6 FSI or TSI, a bigger intercooler with more cooling ability is an absolute must. We�re proud to introduce our new OE Upgraded Cast Aluminum Intercooler and Silicone Hoses for your MK5/MK6 to drop charge air temps dramatically and increase performance.

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.

I'm the second owner of this car, it had just under 9k when I bought it. It was an upgrade from the 07 Mk5 GTI, no offense, I prefer the AWD over front wheel drive.

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.
