Why fit the APR Charge Pipes for 8Y Audi S3 or Golf R?

The factory EA888.4 charge path uses plastic components that can crack or melt under sustained boost, especially on tuned cars. The APR Charge Pipes for 8Y Audi S3, Golf R and Arteon replace them with aluminum pipes and reinforced silicone hoses that hold up to higher boost and heat.

Do the APR S3 charge pipes remove the turbo muffler?

Yes. The APR turbo outlet pipe does away with the factory turbo muffler, which improves flow out of the turbocharger and lets more turbo sound through. The rest of the system then carries that air through a full 60 mm path to the intercooler and throttle body.

Can I run water methanol with the APR charge pipes?

Yes. The throttle body inlet pipe includes a billet aluminum bung with an NPT tap for a methanol nozzle or sensor, so no fabrication is needed. It also carries billet MAP sensor bungs and a billet diverter valve mount with a recirculation path.

What hoses come with the APR Golf R charge pipe kit?

The kit includes multi-ply silicone charge hoses with fluorosilicone interiors that resist swelling, tearing and oil degradation, and APR EZ-flow stepped lips that smooth the transition from pipe to hose. Clampco T-bolt clamps secure every connection at high boost. Nothing extra is needed.

Do the APR charge pipes fit the MK8 GTI?

No. This kit is built for the Audi S3, Volkswagen Golf R and Arteon versions of the EA888.4. The MK8 GTI uses a different charge path layout, and APR makes a separate charge pipe and turbo muffler pipe kit for it.

Description

APR Charge Pipes for 8Y Audi S3, MK8 Volkswagen Golf R and Arteon

APR’s Charge Pipes for 8Y Audi S3, MK8 Volkswagen Golf R and Arteon replace every part of the EA888.4 2.0 TSI charge path between the turbocharger and intercooler, and between the intercooler and throttle body, in one package that combines five APR kits otherwise sold separately. The factory system relies on plastic that can crack or melt under sustained boost; APR’s satin black aluminum pipes resist both and run a full 60 mm through smooth, uninterrupted paths. It is the reliability foundation for any tuned S3 or Golf R, and the kind of part best fitted before the factory plastic fails rather than after.

Design and Performance

On the turbo outlet side, APR removes the factory turbo muffler for better sound and flow. The throttle body inlet pipe drops the restrictive, failure-prone factory internals and adds billet aluminum MAP sensor bungs, a billet diverter valve mount with recirculation path, and a billet bung with an NPT tap for a methanol nozzle or sensor. Multi-ply silicone hoses with fluorosilicone interiors resist swelling, tearing and oil degradation, and Clampco T-bolt clamps hold them at high boost.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
