ECS Tuning - Luft-Technik B8 A4/A5 2.0T Front Mount Intercooler and Charge Pipe System - ES#3108011
The ECS Tuning Luft-Technik Front Mount Intercooler and Charge Pipe System was designed and engineered in-house to provide you with a direct bolt-on system to increase air flow, decrease restrictions and temps, and most importantly to increase power!
The R&D team at ECS Tuning has spent countless hours creating and testing a system to optimize performance and efficiency while providing the clean look that Audi owners have come to expect. We started out by widening the turbocharger outlet to increase air flow with a 2.50" wide and straight-through component that eliminates the factory turbo muffler. Next we moved onto the aluminum intercooler inlet and outlet charge pipes, matched to the 2.50" size of the turbo muffler delete, that removes the factory noise reduction pipe. By deleting the noise reduction pipe and routing larger piping around factory components, our engineers were able to obtain optimal air flow and efficiency. For protection and to provide a clean look, the aluminum charge pipes were finished in a wrinkle black powder coat.
ECS Tuning's Luft-Technik Intercooler features a 21"x9"x3" aluminum bar and plate core with 2.50" inlet and outlet cast aluminum end tanks, finished in a silver powder coat with the embossed ECS Tuning logo. Each intercooler is pressure tested to withstand a minimum of 3.5 bar and designed to increase power, improve efficiency, and reduce heat soak. Our engineers provided a proper fit by utilizing factory mounting locations and ensuring that no trimming or cutting would be necessary, making installation completely reversible.
Increasing the surface area by using a larger more efficient core design and providing a smoother air path, we were able to gain an additional 13HP and 10ft-lbs of torque over the APR Stage 1 software, to the wheels!
Key Features:
This system is capable of withstanding greater heat and higher boost pressure over factory. Improved intake piping components reduce restrictions and provide a much smoother path for air to flow. Never worry about blowing couplers off of our pipes, as each tube is bead rolled and secured with stainless T-bolt clamps using our 4-ply silicone couplers. The Luft-Technik Intercooler System was designed with a focus on improving performance while maintaining OEM fitment with the use of quality parts. Attention to detail is never missed here at ECS Tuning, and this kit is no exception.
The Luft-Technik Intercooler and Charge Pipe System includes:
For help with installation we have provided you with a PDF, available under the Installation category on the product page, to guide you through fitting on your new charge pipe system.
*For use with factory K03 turbocharger. Most K04 turbochargers do not have a removable turbo muffler in order to install the included delete*
Not for sale or use in the state of California on any pollution-controlled vehicle as per the California Air Resources Board.

Additionally, on each product page, we have a tab for fitment information. By clicking on "Fitment", you can scroll and verify the part you are about to add to your cart indeed fits.
Furthermore, if you have a vehicle added to our vehicle selector and you are viewing a product page, you'll see fitment information below the "add to cart" button. If an item fits your car it will display "This Part Fits Your: Selected Vehicule". If an item does not fit your vehicle a message will display "This Part Does Not Fit".
A “Core Charge” is similar to the deposit you might pay for a can or bottle of soda. In many states, to promote recycling, you are charged a deposit when you purchase a can of soda and you receive your deposit back when you return the empty can. Many automotive parts have Core Charges that work the same way as a soda can deposit. The most common car parts that include a core charge are alternators, calipers, steering racks, and fuel injectors.
"MAP" pricing, or Minimum Advertised Pricing, means that the vendor set a minimum retail price that we're not allowed to violate. MAP items cannot be discounted because the decrease in price would violate that threshold.
