MK8 Golf R Charge Pipe Kit - Wrinkle Black

Product Details
The factory EVO4 charge pipes and rubber couplers were never designed to handle the stress and abuse of higher boost levels much beyond stock. When combined with power-robbing abrupt and sharp bends, inferior rubber material, and small diameter tubing, it's easy to see why your intercooler pipes and couplers should be replaced - even on stock vehicles.
At ECS Tuning, we're proud to release our in-house designed and engineered High Flow Intercooler Pipe Kit! Each kit comes standard with mandrel bent, powder coated aluminum plumbing from the turbocharger to the throttle body, as well as upgraded silicone couplers, stainless steel T-Bolt clamps, and all installation accessories for an easy, direct bolt-on installation.
The factory turbocharger outlet pipe has serious restriction right out of the compressor outlet due to it's small diameter tubing and irregular obstructions. We've improved this charge pipe by providing a smooth transitioning silicone coupler right off the turbo outlet, which carries boost pressure to our carefully evaluated larger diameter intercooler pipes. The upper intercooler pipe features a CNC-machined and TIG welded mounting flange for the aluminum mounting bracket to allow for OE-like fitment.
Similar to the turbo outlet pipe, the factory intercooler outlet pipe leaves much to be desired. We've improved this charge pipe by providing a silicone coupler off of the intercooler outlet, which carries boost pressure to our larger diameter tubing throttle body pipe. The ECS intercooler outlet pipe features a CNC-machined and TIG welded MAP sensor mounting flange to allow for direct fitment. We've also included a smooth flowing silicone throttle body hose coupler to complete the transition from stock to our upgraded kit.
Capable of withstanding greater heat and higher boost pressure than stock, you can expect to achieve greater reliability, less turbulence, and less restriction! Never worry about blowing couplers off of our tubes, as each tube is bead rolled and secured with stainless T-bolt clamp over our 4-ply reinforced silicone couplers.
