APR 18-25 Audi RS5/RS5 Sportback (B9) 2.9T Carbon Fiber Intake System

This is the ultimate intake upgrade for the Audi RS4 and RS5 (B9). It flows 36% more than stock, reduces pressure drop, and improves linearization across the turbos. This directly translates to +19 AWHP and +17 AWFT-LBS of torque on top of our Stage 1 (93) tune making this a simple upgrade for more power you can feel.Our system is a full upgrade as it replaces all of the intake components from the inlet scoop all the way to the turbo inlets. This is extremely important as focusing on the airbox alone does not address the main restrictions found in the factory intake system. Simply put, our system flows better than stock, makes more power, puts less strain on the turbochargers, looks sexy under the hood with the gorgeous carbon fiber design, and enhances the sound of the engine.The factory turbocharger inlet pipe is a big restriction point because it's small. It's common for most intake systems to only focus on the filter and airbox, but doing so only has minimal impact on performance. Furthermore, upgrading the turbocharger inlet pipe only has minimal impact on performance if it still necks down to with the factory or aftermarket intake airbox. We solve this by making our pipe as large as possible from the 4" filter outlet all the way to the turbocharger inlets in one piece! This minimizes pressure drop and increases flow through the system far better than a multi-piece solutions.Our system is made from carbon fiber and looks absolutely stunning under the hood. By using this material we are able to make the wall-thickness of the tubes smaller, maximizing the internal diameter, increasing performance even more! The material also allows us to make complex organic shapes necessary when working in a tight engine bay.The airbox is fed from an inlet scoop that maximizes the flow path into the airbox.

Upgrade your Audi RS5 or RS5 Sportback (2018-2024) with the APR Carbon Fiber Intake System, designed to significantly enhance airflow, power, and turbo efficiency. This comprehensive system replaces all factory intake components from the inlet scoop to the turbo inlets, addressing the primary restrictions that limit performance in the stock setup. By flowing 36% more air than the stock system, it delivers a measurable increase of +19 AWHP and +17 AWFT-LBS of torque when combined with our Stage 1 (93) tune, making it an effective and straightforward upgrade for enthusiasts seeking more power. The system's full upgrade approach ensures improved linearization across the turbos, reduced pressure drops at the turbo inlets, and better overall engine responsiveness. It features a massive 7” x 7” washable pleated cotton gauze filter with a 4” outlet and a 5.5” frontal inlet, providing high airflow capacity while maintaining filtration efficiency. The inlet piping is engineered from lightweight, high-strength carbon fiber, which allows for a larger internal diameter from the 4” filter to the turbo inlets, minimizing restrictions and pressure loss. The carbon fiber construction not only maximizes internal volume but also offers a sleek, performance-oriented aesthetic under the hood, enhancing the vehicle's visual appeal. Included billet turbo adapter rings facilitate compatibility with larger turbos, ensuring a versatile upgrade suitable for various setups. Designed to fit 2018-2024 Audi RS5 and RS5 Sportback models, this intake system also features additional flow paths within the airbox that are directed away from the engine, further improving airflow dynamics. The system boosts turbo spool times, enabling quicker acceleration and more immediate throttle response, while the enhanced engine sound adds to the driving experience. As emissions-friendly and non-CARB approved, this system requires acknowledgment for use in certain regions. Overall, the APR Carbon Fiber Intake System offers a significant performance upgrade that combines durability, style, and efficiency, making it a top choice for serious Audi enthusiasts aiming for maximum airflow and power gains.
