Product reference: CTS-IT-293R

Discover the CTS Turbo high-performance intake designed for the Audi SQ5 B9 (2018-2022). Equipped with a 6″ velocity stack filter, the largest on the market, it maximizes the intake of cold air thanks to its heat shield. Quick installation and sound efficiency: more power, less lag, and a strong engine character! 🔥

🔍 Description

• Massive 6″ velocity stack filter, the largest available
• Heat shield to maintain the lowest possible air temperatures
• One-piece molded silicone intake collars – optimized airflow
• Easy assembly, perfect fit without modification

⚙ How it works

This intake kit effectively replaces the original air box. The enlarged inlet filter, coupled with the heat shield, draws in cooler ambient air - a guarantee of better oxygen density for more power and less turbo lag. The whole thing generates gains estimated between 10 and 12 hp on vehicles in stock configuration , and much more with adapted engine settings. The sound is more incisive, especially during the spool and dump valve discharge phases.

❓ FAQ (detailed)

Q: What gains can I expect on stock vehicles?
A: About 10 to 12 additional hp in maximum power, depending on test conditions (temperature, altitude, power bench).

Q: Is the installation complex?
A: No, it is designed for “plug-and-play” assembly, without specialized tools, thanks to its pre-assembled and custom-made parts.

Q: Why is a 6″ filter an advantage?
A: Larger air volume → better engine load, further performance gains, more oxygen for combustion.

Q: Is the heat shield really useful?
A: Absolutely: it limits the intake of hot air from the engine compartment, ensuring optimal charge density for the turbo.

Q: Is this compatible with engine reprogramming?
A: Yes, a reprogramming or tuning course allows you to fully extract the potential of the intake, with gains greater than those announced on a stock vehicle.

Q: Is there an impact on the manufacturer's warranty?
A: As with any modification, it is possible that this could interfere with the manufacturer's warranty — we recommend keeping the original part.
