This silicone Turbo Inlet Pipe (TIP) is an upgrade for 1.8T engines and replaces the OEM intake pipe, which often cracks or deforms under pressure. Thanks to the 4-layer reinforced construction, this TIP offers more stable airflow and better reliability, especially at increased boost pressure.
The hose is resistant to high temperatures and pressure, ensuring consistent performance and a longer lifespan.
