Whenever pushing your car past the factory-designated limits of operation, whether it be through hard driving or performance modifications, adequate engine cooling should always be a high concern. In fact, improving performance by increasing engine work is only possible when engine temperatures are kept within a reasonable range. The Mishimoto Performance Radiator is capable of a 30% increase in cooling capacity due to a fully-brazed, two-row aluminum core that's 25% thicker than stock. The direct-fit radiator also features polished end tanks for corrosion resistance and style.

The most recognizable feature of the latest generation VW/Audi engines is the updated coil pack design. The new arrangement has been proven on supercars like the R8 and and RS7, as well as the hyper-luxurious S8, and now your MKV Jetta can enjoy this same aesthetic effect. Spark energy has also been improved for these coil packs, which are conveniently offered as a set of four.

The modern closed PCV/Breather system is intended to recirculate combustion blow-by gases for cleaner operation and to reduce greenhouse gases. An unfortunate consequence of this system is the ingestion of oil vapor and carbon, leaving harmful deposits on a vehicle's intake valves and ports, resulting in an unreliable air/fuel ratio, lost compression, and decreased power. Engineered and manufactured in the USA, the ECS Baffled Oil Catch Can utilizes a highly efficient 4 chamber oil separator that significantly improves oil/air separation - restoring engine power and efficiency.

The small, inconspicuous FSI cam follower on the MKV Jetta 2.0T actually conveys the movement of your camshaft into power for the high pressure fuel pump, riding directly on the camshaft lobe. As the part wears prematurely, permanent damage to the camshaft or fuel pump is imminent. An even more grim prospect, cam follower failure allows metal particles into the cylinder head, causing catastrophic engine damage. The ECS-assembled Cam Follower Replacement Kit includes everything needed to stay clear of this enormous hassle - a new cam follower, fuel pump o-ring, & fuel pump bolts.

It's common tuner wisdom that increasing airflow & reducing exhaust restrictions increases an engine's ability to make power. Of course, more available air only translates to increased power output when an engine's ECU adjusts to this new condition by adding more fuel to the mixture. The importance of a superior-performing fuel pump should be obvious - the majority of power modifications place extra demands on this part, posing the risk of fuel cutouts or fuel pump failure. With the Autotech Hi-Volume Fuel Pump Upgrade, the sky is the limit, offering up to 50% more fuel flow.
