aFe Magnum FORCE Stage-2 Cold Air Intake - Volkswagen Golf GTI / Golf R (Mk7/7.5) / Audi A3 / S3 (8V) - 1.8L/2.0L Turbo
The aFe Magnum FORCE Stage-2 Cold Air Intake suits the Volkswagen Golf GTI and Golf R (Mk7 and Mk7.5) and Audi A3 and S3 (8V) with the 1.8L or 2.0L turbo. A one-piece open-element XLPE housing keeps warm engine air away from the filter while showing it off, and it works with the factory air scoop to pick up the coolest air.
Fitment Note
Suits the Golf GTI and Golf R (Mk7 and Mk7.5) and Audi A3 and S3 (8V) with the 1.8L or 2.0L turbo. Not for the Golf GTI TCR or the Audi A3 with the 40 TFSI engine.
The 360-degree radial flow filter sits on a 3.5in (89mm) flange with an inverted top for more media area. The dyno-tuned XLPE tube resists heat soak, and billet aluminium fittings let the factory connections move straight across. aFe's dyno testing shows up to +10 kW (+14 hp) and +19 Nm with Pro 5R (24% more flow) and +9 kW (+12 hp) and +16 Nm with Pro DRY S (19% more flow).
Options: Pro DRY S is a dry, oil-free three-layer synthetic media that washes with soap and water, best for street use. Pro 5R is an oiled, five-layer cotton gauze media for the most airflow.
Installation by a professional is recommended.
