RELEASE THE WHINE

Your supercharged C7 A6 or A7 can't make power it can't breathe in. The iE Cold Air Intake replaces the restrictive factory airbox with a ram-air inlet, a built-in velocity stack and a 5 inch filter. Up to 15-20 HP on a tuned car, and a supercharger whine you will want to hear every day.

RELEASE THE WHINE

FLOW EQUALS POWER

ECU tunes, pulleys and other power adders need more air than the factory box can give. The ram-air inlet pulls fresh air from the front of the car straight to a huge filter. More airflow, more power.

FLOW EQUALS POWER

BUILT-IN VELOCITY STACK

Delivering cold air takes more than an open filter. A motorsport-style velocity stack channels air into the intake as efficiently as possible, and doubles as a solid filter mount, so nothing rattles against the heat shields.

BUILT-IN VELOCITY STACK

ALUMINUM HEAT SHIELD

The multi-piece aluminum heat shield channels cold air from the front of the car to the filter, and its shape and angles keep hot engine bay air out. Black powder coat, stainless hardware, and a laser-etched logo plate finish it off.

ALUMINUM HEAT SHIELD

OPTIONAL CARBON FIBER LID

Bring a clean, high-end look to the bay with the optional carbon fiber lid. It is shaped to fit your iE intake and the factory engine bay perfectly, and installs through hidden holes under the trim seal. Add it in the BUY NOW options.

15-20 HP ON A TUNED CAR

Ram air, the velocity stack and a 5 inch filter work together to feed the supercharger efficiently. Back-to-back on a Stage 2 A6, peak power went from 362 to 383 WHP.

How much power will I gain?

Expect 15-20 HP and torque on a tuned engine. On a Stage 2 A6 we measured 362 WHP stock and 383 WHP with the iE intake.

Do I need a tune?

No. It works on stock software, and the biggest gains come with an ECU tune and pulley upgrades.

Will it be louder?

Yes. You will hear a lot more supercharger whine.

Is the carbon lid included?

No. It is an optional upgrade. Add it in the BUY NOW options or later.

How long does the install take?

Around an hour with basic tools. No modifications.
