Description
The Mishimoto Intercooler Pipe Kit (MMICP-MK8-22P) replaces the factory charge piping on the MK8-generation Volkswagen GTI with mandrel-bent aluminum tubing designed to move charged air more efficiently to and from the intercooler. Finished in polished aluminum for this version of the kit, it directly addresses the bends, restrictive diameters, and degradation-prone stock materials that hold back the GTI’s turbocharged 4-cylinder platform.
Built as a true forced induction upgrade, this pipe kit reduces the number of restrictive bends found in the factory piping and increases piping diameter, contributing to a 30.9% increase in airflow and a 10% increase in average diameter over stock components. For anyone chasing a more capable forced induction system, less restriction between the turbo and intercooler means the induction system can support boost more consistently. Five-layer, heat-resistant silicone couplers connect the aluminum sections to the intercooler with a sturdy, long-lasting seal, and worm gear clamps are included to complete every connection. Whether the goal is everyday reliability or preparing for higher boost, this force induction piping is engineered to help the induction engine breathe cleanly under load, and it fits both the factory intercooler and Mishimoto intercoolers.
