Manufactured from aerospace grade carbon fiber, Carbonio further improves this material by incorporating a proprietary thermal barrier layer in its construction. The result is an exceptionally light and strong part that minimizes intake temperatures. This ensures that the engine optimizes power by receiving the coldest and most oxygen rich air possible.

Carbonio's line of intakes for VW automobiles represent the pinnacle of induction design. Extensive testing has resulted in an intake that maximizes performance in all driving conditions. Power will come on sooner and the engine will pull longer and stronger.

Benefits of the Carbonio CAI System include:

         Increases Horsepower and Torque

         Improves Throttle Response

         Decreases Turbo 'Lag' (TDI/1.8T Applications Only)

         Flattens Torque Curve (engine is less 'peaky')

         Improves Fuel Economy

         Enhances Engine's Volumetric Efficiency

         Enhances Sound of Turbo Diverter Valve (TDI/1.8T Applications Only)

         Works with All Aftermarket Diverter Valves (TDI/1.8T Applications Only)

         Installs in an Hour (does not require bumper or headlight removal)
