KYOSTAR Cold Air Intake System for Audi A3 Q3 & VW Golf MK7 EA211 1.2T 1.4T

The KYOSTAR Cold Air Intake System is designed for compatible Audi and Volkswagen models equipped with the EA211 1.2T or 1.4T turbocharged engine. This performance intake system helps reduce factory intake restriction, improve airflow efficiency, enhance throttle response, and deliver a more aggressive turbo induction sound.

Featuring a reusable high-flow cone air filter, optimized intake piping, and enclosed heat shield design, this intake system helps separate incoming air from engine bay heat while maintaining smoother airflow delivery. Designed around the factory mounting area, it provides a clean OEM-style installation solution for daily driving and lightly modified EA211 turbo applications.
