The ARM Motorsports MK7 GTI / Golf R Intake Kit is engineered to eliminate factory intake restrictions and deliver maximum airflow for the MQB 2.0T platform. By replacing the narrow OEM airbox and ducting, this intake allows the turbocharger to breathe freely, resulting in gains of up to 15 hp and 15 lb-ft of torque. Power improvements are most noticeable at higher RPM—especially on tuned IS20, IS38, or upgraded turbo vehicles—making this intake a perfect upgrade for both daily-driven and high-performance builds.

Featuring a massive 4-inch inlet at the filter, the ARM Intake is designed to support the airflow needs of hybrid and big-turbo applications. The primary intake tube is constructed from a single piece of 6-layer reinforced silicone, ensuring rigidity under load and maintaining proper geometry during high-boost operation. The 2.75-inch outlet mates seamlessly with either the factory turbo inlet or the ARM Turbo Inlet for an unrestricted airflow path.

The integrated heat shield is finished in textured black and designed to seal against the hood with soft rubber trim, minimizing exposure to engine bay heat. The welded connection pipe inside the heat shield reduces heat leakage and includes a dedicated tap for the factory vacuum line. This design ensures a clean, efficient separation of hot and cool air for optimal intake temperatures.

The ARM Intake also includes an inverted high-surface-area air filter with a 5.5-inch base, providing over 300 cubic inches of filtering capacity. Additionally, the kit features an integrated SAI filter that mounts directly into the heat shield, giving the secondary air injection system access to cooler, denser air.

With improved turbo spool, increased induction sound, and a 45-minute installation time, the ARM MK7 GTI / Golf R Intake is a top-tier upgrade for enthusiasts seeking power, sound, and performance.
