The ECS Tuning Luft-Technik (Air Technology) Induction System is a premium in-house designed engine aspiration product for your VW MK7 Golf/GTI/Golf R/Alltrack/Jetta GLI or Audi 8v A3/S3 1.8T/2.0T Gen3 that not only delivers remarkable power gains, but also blends automotive engineering into an artistic canvas of underhood beauty. Our system is constructed of premium materials and utilizes the most advanced development methods available to date. Our system is engineered to follow the OEM flow path, keeping installation simple with basic hand tools and includes all new installation hardware.
Throughout years of in-house development, performance-driven design changes and strict product testing, our design has resulted in a highly effective air induction system. Our induction system not only looks good but is real world tested with performance that is second to none. If you expect nothing but the best, like we do, this is the only system for you!
PART DESIGN
Designed and engineered in-house using state of the art 3D laser scanning and CAD technology for precision fitment
INTAKE TUBE - Mandrel bent 6061 aluminum 80mm (3.15") Wrinkle Black Powdercoated Aluminum Induction Tube provides smooth, direct airflow into the turbo inlet hose. Includes a CNC bent, TIG welded support bracket and OE-location vacuum nipple for the intake manifold runner flap solenoid for perfect fitment and functionality.
TURBO INLET HOSE OPTIONS:
Silicone Inlet Hose - Made from 5-ply fiberglass reinforced silicone to prevent collapsing under high boost conditions. Features a smooth transition from the intake tube to the turbo inlet elbow for the least-amount of turbulent airflow. Designed to handle high engine bay temperatures and is resistant to oil / chemical degradation for long term durability. Includes stainless steel, smooth band "German Style" hose clamps.
Carbon Fiber / Kevlar Tubes - The carbon fiber / carbon Kevlar pipe is constructed from 2x2 twill carbon weave then gloss clear coated for UV and heat protection for continuous operating temperatures of up to 300° F. Designed to fit perfectly in place of the factory accordion pipe, our CAD design assures a smooth gradual transition from the intake to the turbo inlet.
AIR FILTER - 3 1/8" conical, cotton gauze, clean-able filter element. Features smooth bell mouth inlet and a conical shape that maximizes filtration surface area. An 8-ply cotton gauze construction provides the best balance between airflow and filtration efficiency.

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
Our ECS Luft-Technik Intake was designed, engineered, tested and quality inspected by our Research and Development team in our Wadsworth, Ohio facility. We strive for the highest level of precision and quality through leading-edge product development technology including FARO laser scanning for reverse engineering and quality inspection, SolidWorks 3D CAD modeling, rapid prototyping utilizing our in-house 3D printer, and rigorous long term product testing.
Performance data metrics are collected utilizing our in-house Mustang AWD 500 SE in ground dyno and in-house Superflow SF-750 Flowbench.

We update our catalog daily to provide the most accurate fitment information possible. When shopping for parts, please use the “select your vehicle” car selector on the home page. Once you've selected your car, you can filter parts specific to it.
Additionally, on each product page, we have a tab for fitment information. By clicking on "Fitment", you can scroll and verify the part you are about to add to your cart indeed fits.
Furthermore, if you have a vehicle added to our vehicle selector and you are viewing a product page, you'll see fitment information below the "add to cart" button. If an item fits your car it will display "This Part Fits Your: Selected Vehicule". If an item does not fit your vehicle a message will display "This Part Does Not Fit".
A “Core Charge” is similar to the deposit you might pay for a can or bottle of soda. In many states, to promote recycling, you are charged a deposit when you purchase a can of soda and you receive your deposit back when you return the empty can. Many automotive parts have Core Charges that work the same way as a soda can deposit. The most common car parts that include a core charge are alternators, calipers, steering racks, and fuel injectors.
"MAP" pricing, or Minimum Advertised Pricing, means that the vendor set a minimum retail price that we're not allowed to violate. MAP items cannot be discounted because the decrease in price would violate that threshold.
