VW Golf MK7 GTI / Golf R / Audi A3 S3 8V Carbon Fibre Cold Air Intake Kit

Product Overview

This carbon fibre cold air intake kit is designed for the Volkswagen Golf MK7 GTI and Golf R, and the Audi A3 and S3 on the 8V platform. Replacing the factory airbox with an enclosed carbon fibre housing and open filter helps the engine draw air more freely, while the carbon finish adds a premium look under the bonnet. It is a popular choice for owners of these turbocharged hatchbacks who want both style and a stronger induction note.
