Carbon Fiber Air Intake for Audi TTRS 8S RS3 8V 8Y

Audi-24

The 2.5-liter inline-five that powers the TTRS 8S, RS3 8V, and RS3 8Y is Audi's most characterful engine -- the DAZA and DNWA five-cylinder that makes between 394 and 401 horsepower from the factory and produces the distinctive five-cylinder warble that no other production engine can replicate. The factory airbox is plastic, buried behind the headlights, and designed to mute the very induction note that makes the inline-five special. This Dry Carbon Fiber Air Intake Kit replaces the factory airbox with autoclave-cured 3K twill prepreg that feeds the five-cylinder the air it needs while amplifying its signature sound.

The carbon intake does two jobs simultaneously. Functionally, it replaces the restrictive plastic airbox with high-flow cone filters and smooth carbon intake tubes that reduce intake restriction, sharpening throttle response and making the turbo spool faster. Aesthetically, it transforms the engine bay of the five-cylinder Audi -- the carbon weave visible the moment the hood opens, a material statement that matches the engine's motorsport heritage. The autoclave cure process produces uniform wall thickness and zero internal voids, with UV-stabilized clear coat that handles the engine bay heat without yellowing.

Direct bolt-on for all three platforms: the TTRS 8S coupe, the RS3 8V sedan, and the RS3 8Y sedan. The intake architecture is shared across the five-cylinder range with platform-specific mounting points, which our fitment accounts for. Factory sensor provisions. No cutting. No permanent modification. The induction note deepens and sharpens -- the five-cylinder warble becomes audible under acceleration, the turbo spool and diverter valve release cutting through clearly. Glossy or matte 3K twill finish. Custom filter colors. Laser-etched Mathcarbon logo. Private-label packaging. Your Spec. Our Factory.
