Racingline R600 Cold Air Intake

🔧 Key Features & Functionality

• High-Capacity Airbox: Enlarged PU airbox houses a massive TriFoam™ triple-layer filter.
• Twin Front Intakes: Draws cool air from both sides of the front panel, supporting up to 600bhp.
• OEM-Level Fit & Finish: Matches factory engine cover texture; uses original mounting points and drain plugs.

🚀 Performance Benefits

• Enhanced Airflow: Filter surface area more than doubled (96,477mm² vs. 43,200mm²), reducing restriction.
• Cooler Intake Temps: PU construction insulates against heat soak, maintaining optimal air density.
• Improved Turbo Response: Turbo spool drops ~500 RPM, reducing lag and sharpening throttle response.
• Power Gains: Stage 2 Golf 7 R testing showed +30bhp (~10% increase over stock intake).
• Ideal for Tuned Engines: Gains are most noticeable above 300bhp; best paired with ECU upgrades.

🧪 Development & Engineering

• CFD & CAD Optimized: Designed by motorsport engineers for ideal flow and packaging.
• Global Testing: Extensively validated across various platforms and conditions.
• Pressure Ratio Focus: Engineered to maximize inlet/outlet efficiency for consistent performance.

🏗️ Construction Details

• TriFoam™ Filter: Triple-layer open-cell polyurethane foam filters down to <5 microns.
• F1-Grade Material: Same filter tech used in Formula 1 for superior flow and protection.
• OEM Integration: Includes SAI pipe fittings for US models and retains factory drain hole.

🔊 Sound Profile

• Induction Acoustics: Delivers a deep, refined intake growl under load.
• Diverter Valve Clarity: Audible valve release between gear shifts adds to the driving experience.
• Balanced Volume: Enthusiastic but not overwhelming—engineered for daily drivability.
