APR Intake System for Volkswagen MK7 GTI, Golf R and 8V Audi S3
Upgrade your Volkswagen MK7 GTI, Golf R, or Audi 8V S3 with the APR Intake System. This complete 109mm system extends from the dual front inlet scoops to the included turbo inlet adapter, delivering substantially more airflow, reduced restriction, enhanced induction sound, and support for factory or upgraded turbochargers. Quick Fitment Overview Compatible with Volkswagen MK7/MK7.5 GTI, Golf R, Golf Alltrack, Golf SportWagen, and Audi 8V/8V.5 S3 Complete 109mm intake from the front inlets to the turbocharger Product Description The APR Intake System replaces the complete factory intake path with a true 109mm design that begins at dual frontal inlet scoops and continues through the airbox, rear tube, and included turbo inlet adapter. The open airbox configuration captures airflow across the front of the vehicle and provides up to 130% more airflow than stock in supported high-output configurations. With the factory turbocharger, APR reports up to 72% more airflow through the complete system. A streamlined single-piece turbo inlet layout reduces complexity and limits potential leak points to only three clamping connections plus an integrated flex section. The system retains factory-style PCV and flex-grommet connections for clean, application-specific fitment. Best For: Volkswagen and Audi MQB owners who want a complete high-flow intake system with strong upgrade flexibility, enhanced sound, and support for factory or larger turbochargers. Why Choose the APR Full Intake System? This system upgrades the entire intake path rather than only the airbox or turbo inlet. Its 109mm architecture, dual front inlets, minimal connection points, and modular turbo adapters provide a complete solution that can grow with future performance upgrades.
