Will the AWE S-FLO Shortie Carbon Intake for RS3 / TT RS fit my car?

This S-FLO Shortie Carbon Intake for RS3 / TT RS fits the 2017-2026 Audi RS3 2.5T Sedan (8V and 8Y), 2018-2023 Audi TT RS 2.5T Coupe (Mk3). 2019 and later cars need the AWE DV Adapter Kit. AWE lists the intakes as 49-state legal. Send us your VIN if you want fitment confirmed before ordering, and we will check it against the AWE fitment data.

Which RS3 intake should I choose?

AWE offers the 2.5T intake as a modular suite. The Shortie is the simplest open-element option, the Open system adds the full carbon tube with an open filter, and the Closed system adds a sealed airbox that captures more cold air. The Closed system posts the largest gains in AWE testing.

How much power does it add?

AWE reports maximum gains at the wheels of 17 hp and 7 lb-ft for the S-FLO Closed Carbon Intake System and 7 hp and 3 lb-ft for the Open system, both measured on stage 1+ software. AWE does not publish a figure for the Shortie, and stage 1+ software is a separate purchase.

It is a bolt-on part that uses the factory mounting locations. AWE publishes an installation guide for it, linked in the Notes above. Most owners with basic tools can fit it at home, or any shop can install it. Contact us if you want help confirming parts for your car before you order.

What guarantees come with it?

AWE backs this part with its Perfect Fitment Guarantee and its No Check Engine Light Guarantee. Contact Bulletproof Automotive with any warranty or fitment question and we will handle it directly with AWE on your behalf, including any claim that needs their review.

About AWE Tuning

AWE Tuning began in 1991 as an installer of aftermarket parts, which is why every AWE product carries a written Fitment Guarantee. It designs, machines and tests in-house at its headquarters in Horsham, Pennsylvania, outside Philadelphia, with its own Mustang chassis dynamometer; one recent AWE carbon intake took more than 350 hours of development. AWE is best known for its handcrafted Touring Edition, Track Edition and SwitchPath exhausts, alongside carbon fiber intakes and intercoolers.

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.
