MQB "Luft-Technik" Dual Air Inlet Duct - Matte Textured - ES#4727695

$160.99
$144.85

The ECS Tuning MQB Luft-Technik (Air Technology) Dual Air Inlet Duct is a premium in-house designed engine aspiration product that increases frontal air inlet area and lowers air inlet temperatures, all while blending automotive engineering into an artistic canvas of underhood beauty. The ECS Dual Air Inlet Duct replaces the undersized OEM air inlet duct in favor of a smoother flowing and larger capacity dual air inlet scoop designed to feed massive amounts of cold outside air directly into the air filter! 

The OEM inlet duct was tailored to the majority of everyday drivers who prefer a muffled, relaxed driving experience. This came at the cost for air induction capacity and design. Inlet air is restricted to available airflow from two tiny passages on the opposite of the airbox at the front and rear of the inlet duct. At higher speeds we found that the rear-facing inlet draws in hot, engine-bay air into the airbox, increasing airbox inlet temps. The OEM inlet duct has further issues for performance-minded owners, such as a blocked off inlet passage directly in front of the airbox along with abrupt edges leading into the air inlet channel. 

By replacing the factory inlet duct with the ECS Dual Inlet Duct, considerably more airflow is available to the air filter. Our design increases frontal cold air area by as much as +79.30% for a massive increase in cool, outside air! We also measured a reduction in airbox inlet temperature of -26° F at redline! 

 

PART DESIGN

  • The beautifully crafted inlet duct is manufactured from lightweight, heat resistant, textured matte rotomolded ABS polymer. It's engineered for a perfect contour to the OEM core support and features a gradual taper to provide a smooth collection of cool outside air into the air filter.

     Improves on the OE design by providing DIRECT airflow into the air box and maximizes available area by utilizing both sides of the front grille assembly 

    • Stock Inlet Total Area (Hot & Cold Air) = 21.41in²

      • Stock Duct Frontal Inlet Area (Cold Air) - 11.98in²

      • Stock Duct Rear Inlet Area (Hot Air) - 9.43in²

    • ECS Inlet Area (Cold Air Only) = 21.48in²Frontal area (Cold Air) increase over OEM - +79.30%

  • Compatible with OEM airbox or aftermarket intakes that utilize the OE air inlet scoop

    • The flanged mating surface seals within the OEM airbox just like the stock inlet duct

 

PERFORMANCE FEATURES

  • The increase in available air inlet volume easily translates into more airflow available to the air filter. Whether your vehicle is equipped with the stock airbox and a high-flow filter or utilizing an aftermarket intake system with the OE inlet scoop, the ECS Dual Inlet outperforms the OEM inlet in all areas.

  • Not only does the ECS Inlet Duct feed a massive amount of greater airflow into the airbox from the frontal area but it eliminates the "hot air inlet" on the OEM inlet duct's engine bay inlet passage. Our Engineering team evaluated the performance of both products and found that with the OEM inlet duct, airbox temperatures increased dramatically at high RPM (~4,600 RPM+) due to airflow being pulled from the hot engine bay side. We measured up to 26° F. temperature decrease with our similarly designed ECS Carbon Fiber Dual Inlet Duct versus the OEM!

  • How do I know if a part will fit my car?

    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".

  • What is a core charge?

    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.

  • What is MAP pricing? Why can't I get a discount on a MAP item?

    "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.
