Unlock reliable, repeatable performance from your EA888 Gen 3 MQB with the AIRTEC Motorsport front mount intercooler and big boost pipe kit bundle.

- Big Boost Pipe Kit improves airflow by removing restrictive factory charge pipes
- 63 mm hot-side pipework helps maintain air speed and reduce turbo lag on higher power setups

Real-world testing and results
Developed and validated with repeated back-to-back dyno runs against the OEM intercooler, this AIRTEC Motorsport FMIC slashes IATs and keeps them close to ambient. Testing on vehicles including Revo Stage 1 setups showed the stock intercooler quickly heat soaks, while the AIRTEC unit maintained stable temperatures and delivered consistent power. It is a serious upgrade for Stage 1, Stage 2 and big-power MQB builds.
