Does the APR Throttle Body Inlet System for 8V RS3 fit a 2019 car?

Yes, with an adapter. On 2019 and later RS3 and TT RS models, the APR Throttle Body Inlet System for 8V RS3 and 8S TT RS needs the APR MS100198-A adapter, unless the car already has the APR intake with its CI100038-G diverter valve adapter.

How much more does the APR RS3 throttle body inlet flow?

APR measured roughly 34 percent more flow than the factory charge path. The gain comes from a larger cross-section, about 72 mm against 64 mm at the intercooler outlet hose, and from easing the tight bend the factory pipe makes directly in front of the throttle body.

Why does the APR system help with boost leaks?

The factory charge path has joints that can leak under higher boost. The one-piece APR casting removes two of those leak points, and the wire-reinforced silicone hose with T-bolt clamps holds more securely, which matters on a tuned 2.5 TFSI running more boost than stock.

What gaskets come with the APR throttle body inlet?

APR includes a new intake manifold gasket, throttle body gaskets, o-rings and one-time-use bolts. These are common leak points that many installers overlook, so replacing them during the install gives the new charge path a sealed start. It saves a second job later.

Does the APR system fit European RS3 models?

Most, but not all. On some European cars the manifold MAP sensor has its bolt hole opposite the connector rather than beside it, and those cars are not compatible. Check the sensor orientation on an imported or European-market RS3 before ordering.

Description

APR Throttle Body Inlet System for 8V Audi RS3 and 8S TT RS

APR’s Throttle Body Inlet System for 8V Audi RS3 and 8S TT RS replaces the whole charge path of the 2.5 TFSI EVO from the intercooler outlet to the throttle body. A single sweeping cast aluminum pipe eases the tight bend the factory system makes right in front of the throttle body, growing the path from roughly 64 mm to 72 mm at the intercooler outlet hose, and the system flows about 34 percent more than stock. The one-piece casting also removes two potential boost leak points. For a tuned five-cylinder running more boost than Audi intended, it is a reliability upgrade as much as a performance one.

Design and Performance

The factory rubber intercooler outlet hose gives way to multi-ply, wire-reinforced silicone with a fluorosilicone lining and stepped EZ-flow lips, held by high-strength T-bolt clamps. A billet aluminum throttle body adapter adds a boost and vacuum reference point for a gauge or other accessory, and APR supplies new intake manifold and throttle body gaskets, o-rings and one-time-use bolts. Despite its size, the complete system weighs only about 2.4 lb more than stock.

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.
