RacingLine R600 Air Intake – VW Golf 7 / 8 GTI & R – Audi S3 8V / 8Y – EA888 Gen3 & Gen4

RacingLine R600 Cold Air Intake – VWR1200R600E / VWR1200R601E

Give your 1.8 or 2.0 TSI/TFSI EA888 Gen3 or Gen4 engine a significant upgrade with the RacingLine R600 Cold Air Intake. This high-performance air intake is one of the world's best-selling performance intakes for the MQB and MQB EVO platform and combines an OEM look with impressive performance.

The R600 replaces the original, restrictive air filter housing and provides a significantly higher airflow to the turbo. Thanks to the large air filter box, optimized air ducts, and full-width dual air inlets in the grille, cooler outside air is supplied more efficiently. This results in improved throttle response, higher performance, and more stable intake temperatures for both standard and heavily tuned engines.

The complete air filter box is manufactured in the United Kingdom to OEM quality standards and is made from high-quality PU polyurethane. This ensures the R600 perfectly aligns with the original mounting points and makes the intake look as if it were factory-fitted.

The R600 is available with two different filter elements:

• VWR1200R600E – RacingLine TriFoam foam filter
• VWR1200R601E – RacingLine pleated cotton air filter

Both filters are significantly larger than the original filter and suitable for powers of over 600 hp.
