REVO OPEN CONE AIR INTAKE SYSTEM
MQB 2.0TSI EA888 EVO HIGH OUTPUT
The Revo Open Cone Air Intake System for the MQB 2.0TSI EA888 Evo High Output engine improves performance and offers an aggressive intake sound. Ensuring your engine can get access to enough air is paramount when increasing power; more air means more power throughout the rev range.
Only Revo Air Intake Systems are specifically designed to work in harmony with your vehicle and Revo ECU Software. Engineered to directly replace the stock airbox, pipework and filter, this kit comes complete with a larger diameter silicone hose, Aluminim hard pipe, heat shield, filter and fitting kit.
Key Features
- Increased Performance & Air Flow Efficiency
- Three Stage Foam Filter
- Direct filter to turbo fitment
- Stepped Silicone for smooth airflow
- Enclosed heatshield
OEM vs Revo
When enhancing the performance of the 2.0T EA888 EVO High Output engine with software, the restrictive OEM intake struggles to flow enough air and limits the potential power gains from performance software. The Revo Air Intake System removes these restrictive elements, flowing more air volume and promoting smoother airflow vs. the OEM system. The Revo Open Cone system replaces the OEM air box with an aluminium heat shield and open cone filter to provide the aggressive intake/turbo sound and massive flow gains over the OEM air box filter. An aluminium powder coated pipe connects to the Revo Flush Fit silicone hose, which avoids unwanted turbulence at joints and increases the rate at which air can flow through the hose. The kit reuses the OE turbo inlet as initial evaluation found it to not provide any significant airflow restriction within the OE intake system especially with the stepped silicone intake hose. The size of the Revo components and the Flush Fit hose design ensure maximum air performance at any level of tuning.
Silicone Hoses
No detail has been overlooked in the Revo Open Cone Intake to reduce intake system restrictions. The stock corrugated plastic hose is replaced with a larger, internally-smooth silicone hose to reduce air turbulence while increasing air volume and air speed delivered to the turbo. The Revo hose’s four-ply construction, coupled with an internal wire helix, increases strength to prevent collapsing under high vacuum and engine bay temperatures. The Revo Flush Fit internal steps create a smooth transition between the aluminium intake pipe and turbo inlet to ensure the smoothest airflow possible within the system, while the integrated DV take off allows fitment to the OE DV hose at the OE location.
Machine DV Connection
The Revo machined DV connector allows for OE fitment to the factory DV hose. The precision machined connector replicates the OE part found on the intake hose, designed to seamlessly fit to the factory location of the DV take off. It was cruical in the deisgn that the fitment was perfect to ensure no boost pressure was lost from the diverter valve, allowing for maximum intake performance.
Air Filter
An intake system is only as good as the filter. The Revo Open Cone kit comes complete with a custom Revo three-stage foam filter, supported by galvanised epoxy-coated mesh for foam support under extreme vacuum load. Revo three-stage foam filters work very differently from conventional paper or cotton-gauze alternatives, designed to trap large particles on the outer layer and progressively finer particles on the inner layers. This triple-mesh design allows for equal-or-better levels of air filtration compared to the OE filter, while still allowing significantly higher volumes of filtered air into the Revo intake system. The Revo-designed and custom-manufactured rubber filter base features a radius feed into the Revo aluminium pipe work, as well as a Revo Flush Fit connection to the pipe work to maximize filtered air volume and stability into the Revo kit.
Heat Shield
Ensuring the engine has access to cold air is vital for performance. The Revo heat shield was designed utilising the latest in 3D scanning technology to create a closed, fully welded shield that effectively insulates the Revo filter from radiant engine bay heat on all sides. Further utilising the 3D scanning technology, the Revo heat shield features a precision-designed provision for the front air duct to channel cold, fresh air directly to the filter as well as fixturing to the OE mounting points, with OE mounting grommets. Providing unparalleled functionality, fitment and ease of installation.
