Racingline Upgraded Boost Pipe Kit for MQB EA888 Gen.3 – VWR140012

The RacingLine Boost Pipe Kit for 2.0 TSI MQB delivers smooth, uninterrupted airflow to increase power and torque, replacing the restrictive, failure-prone factory boost pipes on all EA888 gen.3 cars.

What do the RacingLine Boost Pipes do? By promoting increased airflow through a smooth and uninterrupted charge path, along with removing the factory boost-leak weak points, performance and reliability gains are guaranteed. The 3-piece Boost Pipe kit replaces the factory pipework between the turbocharger, the intercooler, and the throttle body with one-piece, mandrel-bent 6000 series aluminium tube with thin wall 60mm OD for maximum smooth air flow.

It’s by minimising the restrictions of the factory pipes and optimising the routing that this smoother airflow is achieved. As well as giving increased turbocharger sound and faster spool, fitment of these Boost Pipes ensures that the turbo meet less resistance thus allowing it to perform more effectively – moving a larger volume of air and minimising turbulence.

The RacingLine Boost Pipe Kit comprises three separate pieces. Two mandrel-bent hard-pipes for the turbo-intercooler and intercooler-throttle body chargepath, plus a reinforced turbo outlet Silicone Hose for the turbo outlet.
The Boost Pipes themselves are formed from single piece, mandrel-bent 6000 series aluminium tube with thin wall 60mm OD. The silicone hose is hand-wound multi-ply over internal wire reinforcement, ensuring resistance to both heat and deformation. Meanwhile, barbed ends on the pipes ensure no risk of blow off, even under extreme boost pressure conditions.

As you’d expect from RacingLine, each pipe is hand polished then anodised black with laser etched logos as the finishing touch – to look great in your engine bay, and stay looking great.
As with all RacingLine products, perfect fitment a priority. So, all the mounting brackets are carefully TIG welded to ensure dimensional perfection. And within each kit, RacingLine include a stainless steel Mikalor-brand clamp, OEM rubber mounting bobbins and new bolts to make sure you achieve the perfect installation. Install is direct OEM-replacement and requires no additional drilling or cutting to fit – meaning install is fully reversible.

Finally, the Boost Pipes can be used with either factory rubber hoses or, for best results we’d highly recommend pairing them with the RacingLine Boost Hose Kit
