What Does It Do?
The factory paper air filter significantly restricts airflow to your twin-turbocharged V8. RacingLine's high-performance panel filter replaces it with a giant triple-layer Trifoam filter, delivering enhanced flow without compromising filtration. More air means more efficient combustion, translating into sharper throttle response, improved mid-range power, and even gains in fuel economy.
Whether you're running a stock tune or a Stage 1 map, this panel filter ensures your engine breathes freely – a critical factor in unlocking the full performance potential of the 4.0 TFSI platform.
Trifoam Technology
The secret is in the Trifoam triple-layer foam construction, which combines:
-
High filtration efficiency – the same tech used in top-level motorsport
-
Minimal airflow restriction – allowing your turbos to spool quicker and stronger
-
Durability – backed by a lifetime of cleaning and reusing
This foam is supported by a stainless steel open mesh and surrounded by a poured polyurethane seal, ensuring a perfect, airtight fit within the stock airbox – no fuss, no modification.
