The factory MQB Gen3 plastic charge pipes and rubber couplers were never designed to handle the stress and abuse of higher boost levels much beyond stock. When combined with power-robbing abrupt and sharp bends, inferior rubber material, and small diameter tubing, it's easy to see why your intercooler pipes and couplers should be replaced, even on stock vehicles.
At ECS Tuning, we're proud to release our in house designed and engineered High Flow Throttle Pipe Kit! Each kit comes standard with mandrel bent, bead rolled, powdercoated aluminum intercooler-to-throttle body plumbing, smooth flowing silicone couplers, MAP sensor hardware and stainless steel T-Bolt clamps for an easy, direct bolt on installation.
The factory intercooler outlet pipe leaves room for improvement with its smaller diameter tubing and irregular obstructions. We improved on this charge pipe by providing a smooth transitioning silicone coupler right off the intercooler outlet which carries boost pressure to our carefully evaluated larger, 60mm (~2 3/8") tubing diameter throttle body pipe. The ECS intercooler outlet pipe features a CNC-machined and TIG welded MAP sensor mounting flange to allow for OE-like fitment. We've also include a smooth flowing silicone throttle body hose coupler to complete the transition from stock to better with our high quality parts.
Capable of withstanding greater heat and higher boost pressure than stock, you can expect to achieve greater reliability, less turbulence and less restriction thanks to the larger diameter tubing and smooth silicone bends. Never worry about blowing couplers off of our tubes, as each tube is bead rolled and secured with stainless T-bolt clamp over our 4-ply reinforced silicone couplers.
