aFe Rapid Induction Red Edition Cold Air Intake with Pro DRY S Filter, Part 52-10020DR, for 2015-2021 Volkswagen GTI 2.0L

This intake features a massive 360° radial-flow filter with our oil-free Pro DRY S media. Its three-layer synthetic design provides excellent filtration and dust capacity without the need for oils — ideal for everyday use. It’s the perfect choice for daily drivers, commuters, and light off-roaders who want reliable performance with minimal upkeep. This heat-resistant XLPE sealed housing uses our patent-pending filter interface to reduce parts and simplify installation. A clear sight window makes filter checks easy, and an auxiliary air inlet lets you add extra engine-bay airflow or seal it with the included plug. This system features a high quality, computer-designed, dyno-tuned red intake tube to achieve maximum power gains while maintaining a perfect fit. Its XLPE material is heat-soak resistant and extremely durable. Stainless-steel clamps and reinforced silicone couplings are included for strength and durability. Intakes are designed with fewer parts for a fast and easy installation. Included billet aluminum fittings allows stock connections to transfer over seamlessly.
