Evolution Racewerks AU-INT001P-MAF3 Turbo Inlet Pipe

If you're driving a 1996-2001 Audi A4 B5 1.8T, you know the importance of maximizing your turbo's performance. The factory turbo inlet hose is a common bottleneck, especially as you push your boost levels higher. When the turbo spins up and builds boost pressure, it creates significant vacuum pressure that can cause the flexible rubber inlet hose to collapse. This collapse restricts airflow to the turbo, leading to sluggish spool times and compromised throttle response. That's where the Evolution Racewerks AU-INT001P-MAF3 Turbo Inlet Pipe comes into play.

Why Upgrade?

The factory inlet hose is designed to handle stock boost levels, but as you upgrade your turbo or chip your ECU, the increased vacuum can cause serious issues. Imagine trying to breathe through a straw that keeps getting smaller—this is exactly what happens to your turbo with the stock inlet. The Evolution Racewerks turbo inlet pipe is crafted from high-grade 6061 aluminum, ensuring it maintains a consistent diameter regardless of vacuum pressures. This means no more choking the turbo and no more sluggish performance.

Key Benefits

  • Enhanced airflow to the turbo, especially at peak boost
  • Faster spool times for quicker throttle response
  • Durable construction that won't collapse under pressure
  • Maintains compatibility with all factory components
  • Includes all necessary hardware for a straightforward installation
  • Backed by a limited lifetime warranty for peace of mind

  • Constructed from lightweight and strong 6061 aluminum
  • 100% TIG welded for durability
  • Mirror polished finish for a sleek look

Fitment

  • Audi A4 B5 1.8T with 3" MAF (1996-2001)
