The ARM 4.0T Intake allows your Audi V8 turbos to breathe better by improving airflow to the turbochargers. The Audi 4.0T Intake system is comprised of two primary components, the first is the intake portion, and the second is the turbo inlets. The inlet portion of the intake system is the most critical component of the induction system as it is the main bottleneck in the OEM design. 

CONSTRUCTION

The ARM 4.0T Intake Kit utilizes two dry media filters instead of oiled filters, which can damage the MAF sensors. Each filter provides a total surface area of 68 cubic inches, for a total of 136 cubic inches of filter area for the pair.

The filters connect to the intake runner pipes, which measure 70mm, 55% larger than the plastic 45mm OEM Intake runner pipes. The ARM intake runner pipes are made of T6061 aluminum.

The intake runner pipes transition to the 6-Layer reinforced silicone couplers, which are extra durable to prevent any deformation during demanding induction. Depending on your application, you can select either the OEM Inlet Couplers or RS Inlet Couplers.

RS7 Inlet Couplers: if you have an S6 or S7 with RS Inlets installed, or if you have an RS7 with the OEM inlets.  If you have the OEM RS Inlets installed on your 4.0T, these couplers will allow you to adapt the ARM 4.0T Intake to the RS Inlets.  The RS Inlet Couplers transition from 70mm to 66mm.  

Optional Heat Sheild

If you want to maximize the performance of your ARM 4.0T Intake, you will want to opt for the additional Heat Shield, which separates the cold air feeding the intake filters from the hot air generated by the engine. This will result in cooler intake air temperatures. The ARM 4.0T Heat Shield makes a tight seal to the hood, maximizing the amount of cold air ingested by the ARM 4.0T Intake system.
