Air Intake Kit | RS • 1.8T/VR6 12V Golf/Jetta MK4

Maximize your engine's breathing capability with NEUSPEED's latest Race Series Cold Air Intake. Engineered for enthusiasts demanding absolute maximum performance, this system boasts an impressive 3-inch diameter tubing—the largest available on the market—to provide optimal, unrestricted airflow and a significant increase in horsepower. By relocating the air filter into the front driver's side inner fender compartment, this true cold air system draws in dense, ambient air away from the searing heat of the engine bay.

Crafted from premium lightweight aluminum and finished in a sleek, highly durable black powder-coat wrinkle finish, this kit is designed to look as stunning as it performs. To ensure a smooth, rattle-free ride, the system utilizes a rubber-isolated mounting bracket that effectively dampens engine vibrations. This specific kit features our advanced dry paper media filter, delivering comparable airflow and protection to traditional oiled filters without the need for re-oiling maintenance.

Features

• Massive 3" Tubing: Features an oversized 3-inch diameter intake tube, providing the largest cross-sectional area available for maximum airflow and horsepower gains.
• True Cold Air Design: Relocates the air filter into the inner fender compartment, drawing in colder, denser air for improved combustion and power output.
• Premium Construction: Crafted from lightweight aluminum and protected by a durable, sleek black wrinkle powder-coat finish for a high-end under-hood aesthetic.
• Vibration Damping: Includes a specially designed rubber-isolated mounting system to effectively minimize harmonic vibrations and prevent structural fatigue.
• High-Performance Dry Filter: Features a disposable dry paper media filter that does not sacrifice performance. It lasts up to 30,000 miles of highway driving and allows you to extend the life of the filter using compressed air to clear away excessive debris.

Notes

• Vehicle Fitment: Engineered specifically for Volkswagen Golf Mk4 and Jetta Mk4 models equipped with 1.8T (2000–2005) or 2.8L 12V VR6 (1999–2002.5) engines. Please note: Fits models equipped with the factory air pump only.
• Emissions Compliance: 50-State Street Legal under CARB EXEMPT EO # D236-22.
• Weather Condition Warning: Because this Race Series intake places the filter element low in the driver's side inner fender, it is not recommended for vehicles frequently driven in heavy wet weather. For customers living in areas with frequent rainfall or excessive standing water, we highly recommend utilizing our traditional NEUSPEED P-Flo short ram system to eliminate the risk of water ingestion.
