Short Ram Air Intake System w/ Heat Shield by HPS
HPS air intake kit for 2015-2017 Volkswagen Golf 1.8T TSI Turbo offers a free-flowing 3" mandrel-bent aluminum tube induction system designed to produce dyno proven performance gains +8.2 Whp horsepower, +11.9 Ft/lbs torque and improve throttle response while maintaining safe air fuel ratio. The heavy duty powder coated steel heat shield integrates with the factory air scoop to direct cold air to the intake for the best cooling effect. Compare to the cold air intake, HPS short ram cool air intake is a convenient way to change your intake in case of rainy days where water might be inducted into your cold air system.
The included installation instruction has clear pictures and description to guide the installer throughout the whole process. The kit does NOT require tuning and does not trigger CEL light. No modification is required during the installation. HPS light weight mandrel-bent aluminum alloy piping replace the stock restrictive air box and optimize the air flow with long lasting durability. HPS shortram air intake kit features HPS signature race proven reinforced silicone hoses and industrial grade 100% stainless steel T-bolt clamps, which ensure the durability and reliability during the extreme driving condition.
The included High-Flow conical air filter designed to provide increased surface area and dust capacity. This extra surface area provides even more airflow at lower restriction than a standard replacement filter that is limited to the size of the factory air box. The oversize air filter also captures more dirt increasing the service life before a cleaning is required (up to 100,000 miles).

Customer Reviews
The intake is decent. It makes the loud, echoing turbo sounds that you're after. Frankly intakes aren't going to see massive gains on these cars so don't expect that. It's moreso cosmetic and audibly pleasing. The only reason for the lack of the fifth star is that the backet that it comes with is not great quality and mine snapped. I had to rig it another way but it all worked out and every shift comes with a great sound. Would recommend to a friend.
