OVERVIEW
Looking to maximize airflow and turbo efficiency on your MK8 GTI? Unitronic is proud to introduce its High Flow Turbo Inlet Kit which features smooth tube bends, allowing for a laminar flow path throughout the entire inlet assembly.
Comprised of a precisely designed, billet machined, direct-bolt-on turbo inlet and oversized silicone intake hose, this kit delivers up to 10% more airflow than stock for maximum performance and throttle response. It is also compatible with the Unitronic Carbon Fiber Intake System or factory intake system and stock turbocharger or Garrett 2260S turbocharger.

Optimized Flow and Maximum Velocity

At this Turbo Inlet's core is a CNC-machined billet aluminum inlet featuring a smooth taper that increases air velocity just before the turbine—much like a velocity stack. Paired with a reinforced multi-ply silicone intake hose, the entire assembly maintains smooth tube bends to promote laminar airflow throughout the system, reducing turbulence and optimizing flow from intake to compressor.
Proven Airflow Gains

Thanks to precise engineering and design, Unitronic's High Flow Turbo Inlet Kit significantly reduces turbulence and pressure drop, delivering up to 10% more airflow to the turbocharger. The result is quicker spool, improved throttle response, and increased power potential—especially when combined with Unitronic’s Carbon Fiber Intake and Air Duct.
Install
The Unitronic High Flow Turbo Inlet Kit for the MK8 GTI is designed to be simple to install with all necessary hardware included. Installation time will take approximately one hour including the removal of the factory intake and installation of your new intake system.
