The factory charge pipes and rubber couplers on your 2.0T FSI engine 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 engines.  Our in-house designed and engineered High Flow Turbo Outlet Pipe Kit features mandrel bent, bead rolled, powdercoated aluminum plumbing from the outlet of the compressor housing directly to the intercooler inlet, along with smoother flowing silicone couplers, stainless steel T-Bolt clamps and all new installation accessories for an easy, direct bolt on installation.    PART DESIGN Turbo Muffler Delete Pipe - creates a smooth connection from the compressor outlet, directly to our silicone outlet elbow. In addition to smoother airflow it increases turbocharger working sound for glorious turbo noises!  Tubing - 2.50" OD CNC-mandrel bent aluminum with bead rolled ends and Tig-welded factory-location mounting bracketry. Finished in a durable black powdercoat for long lasting great looks.  Couplers - Fiberglass-reinforced silicone hoses provide the necessary connections while optimizing airflow. Rated to withstand up to 250° F. and 45psi of boost pressure.  Hose Clamps - T-bolt hose clamps provide a strong, secure connection to prevent hose couplers from blowing off.  Intercooler Adapter - Precision CNC-machined aluminum intercooler adapter provides the connection from our silicone coupler to the OEM intercooler "quick-clip" fitting.   KIT CONTENTS Turbo Muffler Delete Pipe Silicone Turbo Outlet Hose Coupler w/ T-bolt Clamps  Turbo Outlet Pipe Assembly  Silicone Intercooler Inlet Hose Coupler w/ T-bolt Clamps  Intercooler Inlet Adapter ​   PERFORMANCE FEATURES Dyno tested on our in-ground Mustang "AWD 500 SE" Dyno on a MK5 GTI 2.0T FSI comparing ECS Turbo Outlet and Throttle Body charge pipes against OEM charge pipes.

    The factory MQB Gen3 plastic 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 Turbo Outlet Pipe Kit! Each kit comes standard with mandrel bent, bead rolled, powdercoated aluminum turbo-to-intercooler plumbing, smooth flowing 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 small diameter tubing and irregular obstructions. We improved on this charge pipe by providing a smooth transitioning silicone coupler right off the turbo outlet which carries boost pressure to our carefully evaluated larger, 60mm (~2 3/8") tubing diameter intercooler pipes. The upper intercooler pipe features a CNC-machined and TIG welded mounting flange for the CNC-bent aluminum mounting bracket to allow for OE-like fitment. The lower intercooler pipe features a smooth transition into the silicone intercooler coupler for optimized flow.  Capable of withstanding greater heat and higher boost pressure than stock, you can expect to achieve greater reliability, less turbulence and less restriction thanks to the larger diameter tubing and smooth silicone bends. 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.   The ECS High Flow Turbo Outlet Pipe Kit includes the following: Silicone Turbo Outlet Coupler 60mm Upper Turbo Outlet Pipe, with CNC-Bent Mounting Bracket and Hardware Silicone Upper-to-Lower Turbo Outlet Pipe Coupler 60mm Lower Intercooler Pipe Silicone Intercooler Inlet Coupler Stainless Steel T-bolt Hose Clamps   Key Features: Reduces turbulence and increases air flow capacity Gains up to 10 WHP & 10 FT-lbs of torque with APR Stage 2 93 octane software, 3.0" Milltek turboback exhaust and ECS Kohlefaser Luft-Technik Air Intake with our High Flow Turbo Outlet Pipe Kit and Throttle Pipe Kit (Gains measured on MK7 Golf R) Mandrel bent and bead rolled aluminum tubing, powder coated in tough wrinkle black or wrinkle red finishes Replaces all rubber hoses from turbocharger-to-intercooler with 4-ply silicone upgrades Easy, direct replacement upgraded part Installation video and PDF available online    **Fits 60mm intercooler inlet tube in OE location only This Part Fits the Following Vehicles Make Model Submodel Engine Audi 8V S3 Quattro 2.0T Audi A3 8V FWD 1.8T Audi A3 8V FWD 2.0T Audi A3 8V Quattro 2.0T Volkswagen Golf VII Hatchback 1.8T Gen3 Volkswagen Golf VII Sportwagen 1.8T Gen3 Volkswagen Golf VII Hatchback 2.0T Gen3 Volkswagen Golf VII Facelift FWD 1.8T Gen3 Volkswagen Golf VII Facelift FWD 2.0T Gen3 Volkswagen Golf VII R 4Motion 2.0T Gen3 Volkswagen Golf VII R Facelift 4Motion 2.0T Gen3 Volkswagen Golf VII SportWagen Facelift 4Motion 1.8T Gen3 Volkswagen Golf VII SportWagen Facelift FWD 1.8T Gen3 Volkswagen Golf VIII FWD 2.0T Gen3 Volkswagen Jetta VII GLI 2.0T Gen3 Volkswagen Tiguan MQB 4Motion 2.0T Gen3 Volkswagen Tiguan MQB FWD 2.0T Gen3 *The above product applications have been written by ECS Tuning.
