The Forge developed turbo inlet adaptor improves your vehicles airflow in several ways; designed in a similar way to a conventional velocity stack it directs the air into your turbo charger and allows more air to be compressed due to its larger capacity. This has a positive effect on accelerating your vehicle after long deceleration or in between gear changes due to more air being kept within the intake system. Forge has supplied silicone hoses for cars for many years, and you’ll find plastic OEM inlet hose has ribs and steps within the bore causing turbulence and disturbing the airflow. Forge's experience in product development means large Forge Motorsport silicone turbo inlet hose has increased flow over the standard item and testing on the dyno certainly represent the huge benefits from such a well-engineered product.
The Forge inlet pipe fits directly to the factory airbox along with most aftermarket performance intakes. The hours of development and testing are translated into the results you can feel; when on the throttle this is a component which has proven adds extra power. A Simple swap on the dyno to FMTIA9 proved to enhance power and lower throttle response with gains of 8+ BHP and 11 lb/ft Torque at peak RPM along with around 5 lbft and 6 BHP in the midrange.
This is a simple installation and a modification that releases even more power from the VAG motor and fitting takes typically around 40 minutes. As with all Forge Motorsport products it includes a full set of comprehensive installation instructions to make fitting as straightforward as possible.
Coupled with performance Forge induction kit FMINDK40 gains of 16 BHP can be expected on a stock vehicle. With the VW Golf Rs ECU now being cracked this performance part is a must have if you are considering a software recalibration. This performance intake solution is available in black, blue, or red.
