The best high-performance air intake system for the VW Polo GTI AW/Audi A1 Sportback 40 TFSI EA888 on the market!
Filtration, airflow, and heat are key considerations when designing a new intake system for a turbocharged engine. Our do88 intake system was developed to provide the turbo with good filtration, an improved airflow path, and simultaneously maintain low inlet temperatures. Our design stands out from most aftermarket intake systems; we’ve taken additional measures by developing a custom turbo inlet that replaces the restrictive OE plastic inlet.
Key benefits of the do88 high-performance intake system:
A fully closed/sealed design, ensuring only cold air is delivered to maintain low IAT values.
Our system also replaces the restrictive OE turbo inlet!
Increases airflow by XX%. See the graph in the product photos.
Large, custom-designed cotton air filter with tightly woven cotton gauze fabric (with filter oil).
Washable air filter for optimal performance and long life.
It is recommended to clean the air filter every 20,000 km. See the maintenance procedure in the installation instructions.
Front-mounted air intake ensures unrestricted airflow to the air filter.
Optimized for tuned engines, hybrid turbos, and large turbo kits.
Reduced pressure drop and less stress on factory components than stock.
Improved throttle and boost response.
A smooth design, without sharp or excessive bends or restrictions.
Produces an improved induction sound from the turbocharger and diverter valve (DV).
Compatible with most future modifications you can imagine, such as turbo upgrades.
Quick and easy installation using the factory airbox mounts.
Equipped with a water drainage opening at the bottom of the airbox.
This kit is available in 2 versions:
Includes the DO88 turbo inlet hose and the 3″ turbo inlet hose.
Intake system only. Connects to the OEM plastic turbo inlet hose.
Testing conducted on our SuperFlow SF1020 flow bench clearly demonstrates the importance of this optional turbo inlet hose and tube. The intake system alone provides a substantial 20% increase in airflow. Combined with the DO88 turbo inlet hose and the 3″ inlet hose, the overall increase in airflow is a whopping 20%! We highly recommend this combination.
Our intake system is designed to improve flow and reduce negative pressure while drawing only cold air. Many aftermarket intake systems draw hot air from the engine bay, resulting in very high IAT and a loss of power and performance. Our system is a true cold air intake.
Always be aware that the EM intake system and air filter are designed for the power output for which the car was originally built. An increase in power may result in your stock intake system underperforming. If your intake system doesn’t have the performance you need, it will be too difficult for the turbocharger to get the air it needs, reducing engine efficiency and resulting in a loss of horsepower. Therefore, even on an engine with a software tune, the do88 intake system will provide a performance increase over the OEM airbox!
The do88 high-performance air intake system is supplied as a complete package with all the necessary parts for installation.
