Upgrade your 2015-2021 Volkswagen Golf, GTI, or Audi A3 with the Mishimoto Performance Air Intake Kit designed specifically for the MQB platform equipped with the Gen-3 EA888 engine. Crafted from rotational-molded thermoplastic, this airbox features a precise shape and construction that maximizes airflow and reduces restrictions, resulting in improved engine performance and a cleaner engine bay appearance. The durable thermoplastic material minimizes heat soak, maintaining cooler air intake temperatures even in demanding conditions. Using advanced CAD modeling, 3D printing, and flow bench testing, Mishimoto engineers achieved a 51.7% reduction in air intake restriction over the stock system, translating into noticeable power gains. Dyno testing confirms horsepower increases of up to 5.27 HP and torque gains of 9.23 lb-ft on stock-tuned vehicles. The kit includes a high-flow oiled air filter with 52% more surface area than the stock filter, ensuring maximum airflow while effectively filtering out harmful contaminants. Designed as a complete bolt-on solution, this intake kit includes provisions for the factory SAI system, making installation straightforward without modifications. As with all Mishimoto products, the intake kit is backed by the Mishimoto Lifetime Warranty, offering peace of mind along with enhanced performance. Whether you're looking for increased power, improved throttle response, or a more aggressive engine sound, this performance intake is an ideal upgrade for your VW Golf, GTI, or Audi A3. Its combination of innovative engineering and durable materials ensures long-lasting performance, making it a valuable addition to your vehicle's modifications.
