G7 MST Induction Kit With Big Bore Turbo Inlet Elbow And Silicone Hose - 2.0 TSI

Upgrade the airflow and performance of your EA888 Gen 3 engine with this MST Performance induction kit, designed for a wide range of Volkswagen Audi Group vehicles. This system replaces the restrictive factory airbox and turbo inlet assembly with a high-flow intake solution engineered to maximise airflow to the turbocharger.

The kit features a 3-inch silicone intake pipe, oversized turbo inlet elbow and high-flow nanofibre filter, helping the turbocharger draw air more efficiently. Dyno testing has shown potential gains of around 12–14bhp, depending on the vehicle setup and modifications.

By combining improved intake flow with a larger turbo inlet path, this system helps the turbocharger spool more efficiently while producing a stronger induction sound.

What This Kit Does & How It Works

Factory intake systems are designed primarily to reduce noise and meet emissions regulations. This can restrict airflow before it reaches the turbocharger.

This MST performance intake system improves airflow by replacing the standard intake components with:

• A 3-inch high-flow silicone intake pipe

• A 3-inch red pleated nanofibre filter with large filtration area

• An oversized turbo inlet elbow to reduce restriction before the turbocharger

• A black powder-coated heat shield that helps isolate the intake from engine heat

Together these components allow air to flow more smoothly into the turbocharger, improving responsiveness and engine performance.

Performance Benefits

• Increased airflow to the turbocharger

• Improved throttle response

• Stronger induction and turbo sound

• Potential 12–14bhp gains depending on vehicle setup

• Reduced intake restriction compared to the factory airbox

This intake kit is suitable for both standard vehicles and tuned engines.

What’s Included

• Black powder-coated heat shield

• Black silicone 3″ inlet pipe

• 3″ red pleated nanofibre performance filter

• Oversized 3″ turbo inlet elbow

• Full fitting kit with step-by-step installation instructions

Why Upgrade the EA888 Gen 3 Intake System?

Turbocharged engines benefit significantly from improved intake airflow. The factory intake system and turbo inlet elbow can create airflow restrictions that limit turbo efficiency.

By installing a high-flow induction kit with an oversized turbo inlet, airflow to the turbocharger is improved, helping the engine respond faster and operate more efficiently.

Ideal for:

• Stage 1 and Stage 2 tuned vehicles

• Drivers wanting improved turbo response

• Enthusiasts looking for a stronger induction sound

A straightforward bolt-on upgrade that improves both engine performance and driving enjoyment.
