:: ECS Tuning :: NEW!! B7 A4 2.0T Kohlelaser Luft-Technik Intake

[ECS Tuning-Audi]

Crafted from hand-laid carbon fiber and utilizing a fiberglass interior layer, the Audi A4 Kohlefaser Luft-Technik Intake sets a new benchmark in appearance and durability - all while resisting the performance-robbing effects of engine heat soak.

ECS has subjected this system to rigorous real-world testing, including power-gain measurements on our in-house chassis dynamometer.
The convergence of unrivaled beauty, perfected fitment, industry-standard quality, and evidence-based performance claims has resulted in a gorgeous power-enhancer beyond anything available for your A4.

The ECS Tuning Kohlefaser Luft-Technik Intake System features:

• Specifically crafted to fit B7 A4 2.0T engines using all stock mounting locations
  
• Hand laid Carbon Fiber cover
  
• Powder Coated twin-layer aluminum heat shield
  
• Brushed secondary 5052 aluminum heat shield
  
• 3" conical hi-flow reusable air filter; featuring 8 ply cotton gauze construction and a bell mouth inlet to minimize restriction while maximizing filtration efficiency
  
• 4-ply silicone turbo inlet to hinder collapsing mated with stainless steel hardware & hose clamps for exceptional corrosion resistance and durability

why that price range????? Carbonio failed with their 400$+ price point for little to no performance gains. Im sorry but this is why i went the custom intake route for 1/3 of the carbonio intake price.


However that cone filter seens promising, is it dry-flow or oil based?

[QuattriumMT6]

I would be able to justify the cost of these if they were CARB approved and that little metal piece had the EO# engraved. Very nice fitting piece though. Seems like the better alternative to Carbonio if you had the expendable income for minimal gains. Regardless ECS makes great products!

[adam044]

I heard they are discontinuing the carbino intakes too. Total waste of money sorry.

[AJacksA4]

If you guys sell that CF cover separately I'd be interested. I bet a bunch of others would be too.

Now that I could be interested in. For a REASONABLE price.

[Who_vierno]

Yes, the carbon piece seperate would be awsome.

[menace1930]

Will you guys sell the kit minus the carbon fiber (I don't need) and minus in the inlet pipe (I already bought from you guys)?

[ECS Tuning-Audi]

However that cone filter seens promising, is it dry-flow or oil based?

It is a reusable oil based filter.

Unfortunately the carbon lid is not available separately from this kit.

Well done, and clean look!

Is the kit available without the TIP?

[ECS Tuning-Audi]

Is the kit available without the TIP?

Unfortunately not. This TIP is made specifically for our heat shield and intake assembly. A standard TIP would not fit because our intake changes the location of how the MAF sits to allow for the smoothest path possible for air flowing into the turbo.

What a shame

[shahk62]

Bit of a shame that the kit doesn't come as a split out part - the turbo inlet hose for example many people who'd be interested in something like tihs already have.

I don't think their "regular" turbo inlet hose will work on this kit and vice versa since the location of the maf is slightly altered as per post 12.

What are the HP Gain Numbers?

What are the HP Gain Numbers?

Here, from ecs's website:

Gains of +5 WHP / +5 FT-LBS WTQ on APR Stage 1 ECU Upgrade

Spoon fed

Turbo inlet hose is different than the one we offer for the stock air box.

Gains of 5WHP and 5WTQ

The regular hose that they recently released will not work with the intake setup. It just sucks that many of us just purchase that hose for $50 and now have to scrap it. I was also disappointed in their price point on this. The APR setup in my opinion is overpriced for what it is and the minimal if any gains you get. I was hoping that by them branding their own setup, they would offer it at a better price point. Much like the B7 exhaust setup that you guys now offer and I love every time I get in my car.

[00_Bora]

you guys should make a gloss black version of this intake rather than carbon fiber....should drastically lower the price for those that dont care about 'weight reduction' in their airbox lol

[QuattriumMT6]

I honestly hate to say it but once I'm finished with all other mods I may find myself picking up one of these for the final engine bay touch up. I really like the way this piece makes the engine bay look like one of those you would find in a flagship model or exotic car. I'm sure they reconstructed it to sound better than a vacuum cleaner

It definitely allows you to hear the turbo and diverter valve more. And not in a bad way.

I'm going to be that guy, you can get the carbonio intake from APR right now for $300 because they aren't going to be making them anymore.

[z_wrecker]

No introductory 30% off pricing? or possibly a group buy?

I was fortunate to pick up my carbonio for a really really cheap price. I replaced the filter with a K&N. This intake will suffice for now but it's the fitment of ECS that has me blown away. I'm aware that intake gains are a waste of cash as a performance upgrade but if there's nothing else left to do with your car...why not make your car look/sound better? I'm comparing the pictures between this and my engine bay and it's makes the carbonio look like a knockoff. If only the price wasn't so outrageously high I'm certain this product would be flying off the shelves.

Sell me the Carbonio and you can get the ECS one lol

[james12lucy]

Done!

[adam044]

Done!

PM what you want for it if you are serious.

[QuattriumMT6]

You actually have me considering lol...PM me. I may have something else you may be interested in as well!

[menace1930]

Where are they $300? I looked on the APR site and they were normal price? I had assumed ECS would brand their own and be at a lower price point of around $300 which I would have jumped on but not for the crazy price they want.

Yea I looked too and found nothing for 300. But I'm with you I was banking on the ecs intake being more competitive on pricing, guess not.

[Hugh@EuropaParts]

Not to derail the thread but does anyone have the link for the carbonio replacement k&n filter?

Shouldn't we be asking you that? Lol

[Hugh@EuropaParts]

Shouldn't we be asking you that? Lol

We do not carry the carbonio... i wonder if the ecs filter would work.

[QuattriumMT6]

This is what I was running at one point. Fits just like the carbonio updated filter and not that foam-style element.

Jason- is the price for this piece fixed? Or will there be any holiday sales/deals us ziners can benefit from and purchase this kit?

We usually offer discounted pricing on all ECS products during the holidays. That's really the only time we offer sale pricing.

lol, don't you guys carry the replacement?



On a more serious note, product looks awesome, and would make any engine bay look better. I know we are a much smaller demographic, but any plans for the b6/7 4.2?

[adam044]

Lol vendor wars!

We do have the replacement filter. If you need one PM me and I'll be happy to give you the part number.

Unfortunately we don't have any plans for 4.2 at this time.
