MOTORSPORT DESIGN

IE's cold air intake system releases the iconic growl from your VR6 equipped VW Atlas. Engineered with true motorsport features and industry-leading design software, the result is a true performance intake system that outflows the stock airbox and delivers endless sound and fun for your sophisticated and sporty SUV.

LEADING FEATURES

Our number one goal is to deliver a quality finish, effortless install, maximized performance, addictive sound, reliability, and above all -fun.

  • Improved horsepower & torque
  • Built-in velocity stack
  • Black powder coat aluminum heat shield
  • Factory style mounting
  • Stainless hardware
  • Multi-ply silicone with stop-flat edges
  • High-quality clamps
  • Stainless laser-etched logo plate
  • 5" pleated cotton filter

HARSH CLIMATE FILTER UPGRADE

Explore with confidence while keeping your engine safe on dirt roads, sandy beaches, or anywhere your intake is exposed to nasty contaminants. Using a 3-step approach to combat harsh climates the filter has been increased to 8 pleats, treated with penetrating filter oil, and covered with a pre-filter sock. This offers superior filtration and peace of mind for your intake system when traveling the roads unknown.

IE Harsh Climate Filter Kit is an optional upgrade and sold separately.

PERFECT FIT

Performance intakes with maximized flow potential are limited within the constraints of the factory engine bay. Advanced 3D scanning technology is used to take full advantage of all available space. This digital design space ensures a perfectly crafted aftermarket intake with an exacting installation that exceeds even the factory fit.

VELOCITY STACK

IE's signature velocity stack is built-in to the heat shield and effectively channels the massive amount of airflow from the 5" air filter's surface area smoothly to the throttle body. This results in incredibly low amounts of power-robbing drag and turbulence. This is a function only achieved by the efficient bellmouth shape and not found on traditional "filter on a stick" cold air intakes.

RAM AIR SCOOP

The aluminum heat shield spans the entire length of the front clip, taking advantage of the huge stock grill. This design protects the intake from hot engine bay air while effectively channeling high-pressure air through the grill directly to the engine.

ENJOY YOUR DRIVE

The unique growl of the VR6 engine was an instant enthusiast favorite after the debut in 1991. Sadly, the modern stock airboxes are a plastic compromise resulting in flow-killing restrictions and entirely muted engine notes. Upgrading to our performance-designed intake will remove all these restrictions allowing the engine to breathe happily and produce that amazing and classic sound.

FLOW BENCH TESTING

Our engineering team performs rigorous back-to-back flow rate testing to maximize airflow and validate the design against the factory airbox. Utilizing every inch of available space for a full-width ram air inlet, 5" air filter, and integrated velocity stack this optimized design results in up to 134 CFM increase over stock!

DYNO RESULTS

In addition to flow bench testing, real-world power numbers are achieved using our in-house dyno cells to see the effect the improved flow rate has on horsepower and torque. The testing was performed in controlled conditions on a completely stock Atlas performed the same day back to back. Dyno results show consistent and significant power gains of 17HP & 21 ft-lbs to the wheels!

The above gains are a result of various design details:

  1. The 5" air filter surface area, ram air scoop, and inlet design reduce airflow restrictions.

  2. The internal velocity stack provides a low-turbulence transition from the filter to the inlet pipes.

  3. The full-width heat shield both channels ambient temperature air quickly to the engine and protects the airflow from engine bay heat.

INSTALLATION

Install your new intake kit without any permanent modifications or installation hassles. The install process is straightforward and can be done with basic tools.

Install time around 1 hour

Sounds amazing

Fit was good, easy install. So much better than the awful stock intake setup. Finally sounds like a VR6. Installed on a 2023 SEL R-Line.

Pepping up the Asphalt Assault Craft

This thing really adds some decent pick up and fixes the complaint I had with the laggy throttle. Fitment was supurb. I didn't experience the strained MAF harness like some others had mentioned. I deleted the resonator earlier today looking for more of the VR6 sound and found that adding this intake to the mix gave me all of noise i was looking for, without excessive drone, in a daily family hauler. Install was super easy, and would've been done in under an hour if all my neighbors didn't come over to ask what was broke on my 850 mile '23 Atlas. Great product! I look forward to seeing what y'all come up with for this thing next.

Love it

Thrilled with the fit/quality of this intake. I previously had the ECS intake and prefer the IE intake much more. The sound is also fantastic. I have the wookie pipe already, but this added even more of that famous wookie sound at low rpm.

Opening up the #fellbeast

I have installed a lot of different intakes over the years and this one is by far one of the nicest and well engineered. Easy instructions and very well constructed, could not be happier.
