The Evolution Racewerks VW-INT001P Turbo Inlet Pipe is engineered to address the critical airflow limitations of the factory turbo inlet hose in the Volkswagen Passat 1.8T Turbo models from 1998 to 2005. As boost pressure builds, the factory rubber inlet hose can collapse under vacuum, restricting airflow to the turbo and negatively impacting performance. This issue becomes more pronounced with aftermarket chip and turbo upgrades, where increased boost levels amplify the vacuum effect, leading to potential engine stalling and rich running conditions.
Crafted from high-grade 6061 aluminum, this turbo inlet pipe maintains consistent diameter under varying vacuum pressures, ensuring optimal airflow to the turbocharger. The TIG-welded construction guarantees durability and strength while keeping the weight down, making it a reliable upgrade for performance-oriented drivers.
Upgrade your Volkswagen Passat 1.8T Turbo with the Evolution Racewerks Turbo Inlet Pipe to enhance airflow, throttle response, and overall performance. Ensure your turbo operates at its best, even under the most demanding conditions.
