PROFILE

The ARM MK8 Golf R Turbo Inlet was engineered to remove one of the most restrictive points in the factory intake system. The OEM MK8 Golf R turbo inlet necks down to a narrow 60mm inside diameter at the turbocharger, creating a bottleneck that limits airflow and responsiveness. The ARM MK8 Golf R Turbo Inlet increases the internal diameter to a full 72mm, a 20% increase over stock, allowing the turbocharger to breathe freely and respond faster. 

CONSTRUCTION

The ARM MK8 Golf R Turbo Inlet is fully constructed from T6061 aluminum for maximum durability, heat resistance, and long-term reliability. Unlike the OEM plastic inlet, which can deform or crack over time due to engine bay heat and repeated heat cycles. The ARM MK8 Golf R Turbo Inlet features a precision-machined turbocharger flange which ensures perfect fitment, while the included high-temperature O-ring provides a leak-free seal at the compressor housing.

INSTALLATION

Installation of the ARM MK8 Golf R Turbo Inlet is an easy 30 minute job.  Serving as the critical link between the intake tube and the turbocharger, the ARM MK8 Golf R Turbo Inlet is designed to work seamlessly with the ARM MK8 Golf R Intake, the OEM intake, and any aftermarket intake that utilizes the factory MK8 Golf R turbo inlet location. The result is improved airflow, sharper throttle response, and enhanced turbo sound.
