Our secret for fitment on the later 'WLTP' 2020+ cars? We have commissioned the production of our very own version of the complex one-way venturi valve that is moulded into your original Turbo Inlet.
Only by recreating this part to the OEM standard can your WLTP car continue to run properly, with no engine warning lights.
Sometimes, you just need to do the job properly!
Breathe
free.
1.0 TSI Air Intake.
The highest-performing, race-bred cold air intake for the 1.0 TSI (EA211).
And it's not just an intake. The new RacingLine 1.0 TSI Intake includes our Turbo Inlet Elbow to guarantee the best possible performance from your intake system.
Now available for the later 'WLTP' tested cars - with the first, and only, properly engineered solution on the market for these cars.
What's so
Special?
The RacingLine VWR Cold-Air Intake System is simply the most complete induction package available for the 1.0 TSI.
Our package combines two components together - the Air Intake itself plus the Turbo Inlet Elbow. Without these two elements flowing in harmony you'd be wasting a lot of your hard-won power gains.
Together these upgrades allow greatly increased airflow from your intake into the turbo for lightning fast turbo response and a worthwhile power gain.
Our High-Flow TriFoam™ triple-layer construction is simply the best filtration material on the market, and is the key to the power gains achieved.
Each Trifoam® filter is carefully handmade in the UK.
GIANT TRIFOAM® FILTER
Our unique Trifoam® filter construction is hand-made in the UK for the perfect filtration and minimum restriction.
SOUND QUALITY
You'll hear the rich induction noise from this race-bred intake as soon as you accelerate hard, allowing you to enjoy the engine’s true turbocharged sounds at last.
POWER GAINS
Replacing the standard plastic pipework and opening up the highly restrictive airflow path through to the turbo gives a worthwhile power gain, especially when remapped.
Precision Engineered for
Perfect Performance.
As a complete induction system, the critical Turbo Inlet Pipe is included to work in perfect harmony
A fully-enclosed satin Midnight Black aluminium spinning contains the high flow triple-layer cone filter
Trifoam™ filter construction, a triple-layer laminate of open-cell polyurethane foam, gives an exceptionally high level of filtration
Laser-cut mounting bracket and rubber strap are part of the full install kit, for perfect fitment each time
Reinforced high quality silicone to prevent deformation under boost pressure or heat
What job does the
Turbo Elbow do?
By including our Turbo Inlet Elbow pipe with our 1.0 TSI Intake system, the airflow of the entire induction system is maximised to get the very best out of the car's airflow potential.
The Turbo Elbow is the part that changes between the earlier and later cars. If you car is post 2019/2020 and WLTP-tested, your turbo elbow will come with the venturi valve included.
The high-flow Turbo 90 Inlet pipe is greatly enlarged compared with the original, with a smoothed internal bore
To fit the intake alone without this Turbo Inlet Elbow would waste a lot of your hard-gotten airflow gains
With this level of airflow, it's ready to support higher power outputs from our OEM+ Performance Software
Confirmed applications.

How do I know
if my car is post-WLTP?
Dependant on your model and country, Volkswagen Group made changes to the 1.0 TSI engine to comply with the new emissions standards imposed by the WLTP testing regime from 2019/2020.
If you're not sure, it's easy to check.
Take a look under your bonnet. You are looking for the small pipe (circled in the image). If your car has this pipe, then your car is the later post-WLTP engine.
It's even easier to tell if you have an UP! GTI. The facelifted cars, from 2020 onwards all need the WLTP-modified RacingLine Turbo Elbow.
You can see from the outside. The later 'WLTP' tested cars have the new 'smooth' VW badge (right), the earlier cars have a '3D' badge (left).
What's the
post-WLTP difference?
The factory turbo inlet for the later 1.0 TSI cars incorporates a moulded-in one-way venturi valve to control airflow - which cannot be removed to reinstall into a high-flow turbo inlet like our RacingLine one.
The only way to resolve this engineering challenge has been for RacingLine to commission our own an all-new venturi valve. You'll get an instant engine light without it!

Our new one-way venturi valve for WLTP Air Intake even has our part number moulded-in.

High-performance
tuning by RacingLine.
RacingLine Performance Software is simply the most effective modification you can make to a modern turbocharged engine.
We take a pretty unique approach. We don't just over-write the existing software. Instead we take the manufacturers' philosophy and create a complete new calibration designed from scratch exclusively for each model. All developed in perfect harmony with our world-renowned Performance Parts range.
What does that mean for you? It makes for safe, smooth but above all FAST calibrations.
That's what makes the RacingLine difference.
