VTT MK7 (MQB) GTI/Golf R/Jetta/8V S3 Silicone Charge pipes

Description

VTT is proud to offer the very best charge pipe solution for the VAG MK7 Golf/Jetta/A3 platforms. This system completely does away with the restrictive, and muli-connection stock charge pipe system, and replaces it with two single 6-ply, Heat Resistant, Wire reinforced silicone charge pipes rated at over 200 psi.  They are molded for the perfect fit in your engine bay, while not sacrificing anything in the way of flow or size. They also completely isolate your charge air from any additional heat soak coming in from the engine or ambient heat. The stock hot side pipe is Plastic, and bolts to the engine block. This pipe necks down to almost 1.5″ coming out of the turbo, and has many irregular shapes, and turns causing turbulence. Our hot side pipe goes from 2″ immediately up to 2.5″ and continues as 2.5″ to the intercooler. On the cold side, the pipe is plastic and also has a very irregular shape, and necks down to almost 2″ in spots, which can cause turbulence right before the throttle body. Our cold side pipe has completely smooth bends, and starts from 2.5″ and increases to 2.75″ immediately and stays that size all the way to the Throttle body. These silicone charge pipes resist heat and are not attached to the engine outside of the connection to the turbo outlet, and TB inlet. Thus avoiding the transfer of heat. Another huge benefit is your vehicle goes from 4 connections on each pipe to TWO. Meaning you now have half of the possible locations for a clamp to be blown off rendering you with no boost.

Installation is very easy and takes about 1-1.5 hours if you are inexperienced with working on your own car, can take as little as 30-45 minutes if you have had it apart a few times.

Dimensions for the pipes are as follows:

Hot Side Pipe: 55mm or 2.16″ on the connection to the turbo outlet opening up immediately to 65mm or 2.5″ and remaining to 2.5″ to the intercooler inlet

Cold Side Pipe: 65mm or 2.50″ at the intercooler outlet opening up to 70mm or 2.75″ all the way into the throttle body
