Optimize the primary induction line of your 245hp EA888 Gen 4 engine with the Forge Motorsport high-flow turbo inlet adaptor. Engineered directly as a high-performance replacement for the restrictive factory plastic elbow, this product fixes the aerodynamic limitations of original VAG equipment. The stock factory inlet has a tight internal radius and stepped joints that cause severe air turbulence, creating an air delivery bottleneck under load. The Forge upgrade features a smooth internal bore profile that expands the induction path, helping the turbocharger draw air more efficiently for faster throttle response and sustained power gains.
This critical induction component is manufactured in-house using advanced multi-axis CNC billet machinery. Cut from structural 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, this solid part completely eliminates the flexing, cracking, and fatigue common to plastic components over time. To ensure long-lasting durability under extreme under-bonnet heat cycles, each adaptor is finished in a high-gloss black anodized surface coating. This finish protects the aluminum from oxidation while giving the engine bay a clean appearance.

To eliminate any potential for unmetered air draw or vacuum leaks, this high-flow adaptor uses an advanced mechanical sealing face. It features an integrated high-temperature Viton O-ring seated inside a precision CNC-machined groove. This design provides an airtight seal against the turbocharger housing face, maintaining internal pressure consistency even on vehicles running aggressive Stage 1 or Stage 2 engine management calibrations.
To completely optimize your vehicle’s intake system and maximize airflow to the turbocharger, consider adding these complementary upgrades:
