This is not another mass produced "filter on a stick". IE's cold air intake has been specifically engineered and developed using professional racing design aspects and specialized computational flow dynamic software. The result is a true Motorsport intake system that sounds and performs for the track with a sophisticated and classy design.
EASY POWER
The ram air design, built-in velocity stack, and our massive 5-inch filter inlet help deliver the most HP possible from a cold intake system. Expect peak gains of 15-20+HP/TQ on tuned engines.
DESIGN FEATURES
INCREASED AIR FLOW
Upgrading your ECU tune, pulleys, and other power adders requires airflow beyond that of the factory intake box. IE's intake feeds an impressive flow of air from the front of the vehicle directly to your supercharger. More cold air flow means more power, especially during the hot summer months. Ditch your stock restrictive airbox for the IE intake System. -Oh, and it sounds AWESOME too!
HIGH-FLOW VELOCITY STACK
Delivering cold air effectively for power takes more than just an open filter. Employing velocity stack technology like that found in professional Motorpsorts and adapting it for the 3.0T engine, efficiently channels air as quickly as possible. The velocity also functions as a solid mount for the air filter which means no intake pipes rattling or rubbing on heat shields.
PRECISION FIT
This Intake fits Audi 8R SQ5 & Q5 3.0T V6 Supercharged engines without any modification or installation hassles. The install process is simple and can be done quickly with basic tools. The fact that IE intake utilizes the factory airbox mounts ensures a perfect and hassle-free fit. Additionally, the stock mounts allow for engine movement which keeps intake components from getting damaged.
QUALITY COMPONENTS
IE uses a multi-piece heat shield which performs and looks great. It effectively channels cold air from the front of the car to the massive performance filter. Furthermore, it eliminates the induction of hot air found in other locations of the engine bay further protecting against power robbing heat off the exhaust and supercharger.
The IE Carbon Fiber Intake System for your Audi C8 RS6 or RS7 has been engineered for performance first through extensive airflow analysis and design testing. Get ready to experience massive real-world power and torque with 60-70HP gains on tuned engines!

ADDED DISPLACEMENT
Your HPFP is an integral part of the MQB platform direct injection (DI) system and provides exceptionally high-pressure fuel (exceeding 2900psi) to the injectors. When running turbo upgrades or ethanol fuel, the stock HPFP internal volume becomes the limiting factor when increasing power. IE’s HPFP internals install into your factory pump housing and increase the bore and piston size of the pump internals, allowing more flow, delivering more fuel, and allowing for more horsepower & torque.
FLOW TESTING
Upgrading to IE’s HPFP reliably increases the flow rate of the high-pressure pump for more tuning headroom to increase power safely. The result is a maximum gain of 38.58% over stock!
RELIABILITY
Every piston and cylinder is CNC machined to exacting sizes, assembled, and measured as a matching set in-house. Tolerances are hand-verified using specialized measurement tools and verified down to 0.00005 of an inch to ensure reliability and proper function. These extreme manufacturing and QC processes are the foundation that has built IE’s leading reputation in HPFP reliability and the popular choice for anyone wanting worry-free operation.
Engineered & manufactured in the USA
PUMP DYNO VERIFICATION
IE HPFP designs are verified and torture-tested on our own application-specific fuel pump dyno. This machine is able to replicate countless miles and various RPM situations to substantiate every detail of the HPFP design. This strict engineering process, combined with our 100% in-house CNC machining, obsessed quality control, and top-shelf components is why IE HPFP Kits have earned their esteem and reputation for reliability.
INCLUDED LIMITED WARRANTY
Due to the extreme machining and coating tolerances, Integrated Engineering offers a limited warranty on this product: Six months from the day of purchase (unlimited miles) for MQB internal HPFP kits.
DLC COATED
DLC (diamond-like carbon coating) is an advanced coating process applied to the tool steel pin. This coating combines hardness and low friction, providing excellent wear properties and self-lubrication behavior that drastically extends pin life.
CONSTANT DIAMETER PIN
Many aftermarket HPFP options use a stepped-diameter piston in a cost-saving effort to reuse the factory seal. This design dramatically reduces the contact between the pin and cylinder, causing instability of the pin stroke leading to increased wear. IE’s uniquely designed constant diameter pinmaintains its larger size through the entire piston shaft. This engineering detail increases the contact between the pin and cylinder by over 50% compared to kits which do not replace the seal and nut, increasing pin stability.
NITRIDED CYLINDER
The cylinder can see up to 19000 strokes a minute with an astonishingly thin tolerance and is lubricated by fuel only. Our tool steel cylinder is nitrided to guarantee it can withstand this torture. This advanced process infuses nitrogen atoms into the atomic structure of the outer surface of the component, increasing surface hardness and wear properties drastically. The thickness and quality of every nitride production batch are independently verified in a specialty lab.
TITANIUM RETAINER
Our ultra-lightweight FEA optimized titanium retainer reduces the chance of valve float while securing the spring to the new IE pump assembly. The internal kit is designed correctly for the factory spring rate, avoiding the need for a stiffer spring that adds unnecessary pressure and wear on the camshaft.
LEAK-FREE SEAL
A custom CNC Machined nut holds our molybdenum disulphide impregnated PTFE seal, which is ideal for reducing friction and maintaining stiffness. The seal is spring energized to increase reliability and provide constant outward pressure. The body is sealed to the pump with a quality Buna-N rubber o ring, ensuring it will hold up against heat and a wide range of fuels. What may seem like minor features add up to ensure long life and trouble-free operation.

A special rotomold process is used to manufacture our premium polymer 3.0T intake airbox. This method leverages complex shapes and angles to maximize internal volume for air supply and smooth flow for a true performance design. This molding style also produces consistent wall thickness, strong corners, and superior heat resistance for a cost-friendly intake without compromises.
SEAMLESS DESIGN
The entire intake is designed as a single-piece airbox to offer a seamless and complete look with an above factory quality fit and finish.
BUILT-IN VELOCITY STACK
Our motorsport-designed velocity stack creates a smooth transition from the large filter area to the turbo inlet with excellent laminar properties. This uniquely engineered detail produces a high inertia flow with reduced drag and power-robbing turbulence.
TURBO INLET UPGRADE
Adding the optional cast turbo inlet upgrade further reduces significant air restrictions while maintaining the largest size possible from the airbox to the turbocharger. The intake and turbo inlet further increases airflow from 37% (intake only) up to a combined 61% over stock! Turbo inlet pipe is an optional upgrade and can be purchased with your intake or added at a later date.
HYBRID TURBO READY
The intake and turbo inlet designs offer a straightforward and bolt-in job of available hybrid turbo upgrades. Our turbo-specific CNC-machined and o ring sealed adapters always maintain the largest size possible without introducing flow restrictions.

IE DSG TUNE TECHNICAL FEATURES
HIGHER SHIFT POINTS
Utilize the whole powerband of your supercharged 3.0T engine without the DSG interfering and shifting early.
DRIVE MAPPING REWORKED
The B8 and B8.5 S4 is designed to a fault to keep engine rpm extremely low in drive. We completely reworked this, creating a more enthusiast-friendly drive mapping which shifts a bit higher. This eliminates vibration and that constant feeling that you’re lugging the engine. We’ve reworked the downshifting aspect as well, making the transmission much quicker to deliver power when you need it. Thousands of miles of testing were accumulated and a variety of users were polled to come up with this improved drive mode.
INCREASED CLUTCH PRESSURE
Increasing the clutch pressure allows for the transmission to hold more torque without causing clutch damage or expedited wear. With the increased torque, the acceleration will be greatly increased and launches will far more aggressive.
FLASHED THROUGH OBD-II PORT
There’s no need to remove the TCU from the car and it can be flashed in your driveway or through an IE software dealer. Additionally, having an IE PowerLink cables means you can install updates are they become available as well as read TCU and ECU fault codes.
TAKE-OFF LAG REDUCED
The clutch engagement has been reworked to reduce that annoying “DSG Lag” when moving away from a stop.
MULTIPLE LAUNCH RPMS
The purchase of an IE DSG file grants you access to customization of launch points. With several launch points to choose from you can pick what works best for your setup!
FLAWLESS OPERATION WITH IE ECU TUNES
