Description
Give your Audi 4.0T V8 a serious airflow upgrade with the Untd. Performance Dual 6″ Velocity Cold Air Intake, designed for the Audi S6, S7, and RS7 C7/C7.5 platforms. Featuring a dual-intake configuration with massive 6-inch velocity-style inlets, this system is built for high-performance applications where turbocharger airflow capacity is a priority.
Designed for the twin-turbocharged 4.0T V8, this intake setup targets enthusiasts looking to reduce intake-side restrictions, enhance turbo induction sound, and support increased airflow demands from ECU tuning and upgraded turbochargers. Whether you’re building a responsive Stage 1 street car or pushing a high-output Stage 2 or hybrid-turbo setup, the Untd. Performance Dual 6″ Velocity Intake provides a performance-oriented solution for modified EA824-powered Audis.
Key Features
Dual 6″ Velocity Intake Design – Maximum Airflow Capacity
The dual-intake configuration features large 6-inch velocity-style inlets designed to provide substantial airflow capacity for the twin-turbocharged 4.0T V8. Actual flow depends on the complete intake layout, filtration, and turbo inlet dimensions.
Improved Twin-Turbo Airflow
A less restrictive intake path can help the turbochargers draw air more efficiently, supporting increased airflow demands under boost and at higher engine speeds.
Enhanced V8 Turbo Induction Sound
Experience more pronounced turbo spool and induction noise, adding a more aggressive character to the Audi’s twin-turbo V8 driving experience.
Designed for Tuned Applications
An ideal supporting modification for compatible ECU-tuned S6, S7, and RS7 builds, particularly when paired with appropriate intercooling, exhaust upgrades, and other supporting hardware.
Supports Upgraded Turbochargers
The large intake configuration may be particularly beneficial for compatible hybrid-turbo and big-turbo builds where airflow demand exceeds the capacity of the factory intake system.
Performance-Oriented Design
Developed for enthusiasts prioritizing airflow capacity and turbocharger performance over the quieter, more restrictive characteristics of a factory-oriented intake system.
Installation & Tuning
An intake-only installation generally does not require ECU tuning when correctly matched to the vehicle. Modified turbochargers or custom ECU calibrations may require adjustments depending on the intake design, airflow sensors, and turbo inlet configuration.
Estimated Performance Gains
The following figures are conservative planning estimates for the additional contribution of the intake itself, compared with an otherwise equivalent factory-intake setup. They are not verified dyno results for this specific product.
| Tuning Level | Estimated HP Gain from Intake | Estimated Torque Gain from Intake |
|---|---|---|
| Stock ECU | ~3–8 HP | ~3–8 lb-ft |
| Stage 1 ECU Tune | ~5–12 HP | ~5–12 lb-ft |
| Stage 2 ECU Tune | ~5–15 HP | ~5–15 lb-ft |
| Hybrid / Big Turbo | Setup-dependent | Setup-dependent |
Stock ECU: Peak-power gains are generally modest, although the larger intake configuration may provide increased airflow capacity and more pronounced induction sound.
Stage 1: The intake can complement ECU tuning, but most of the total power increase comes from the ECU calibration rather than the intake alone.
Stage 2: With suitable supporting modifications, the intake may help support increased airflow demands as engine output rises.
Hybrid / Big Turbo: The potential benefit depends on turbocharger size, inlet requirements, boost targets, and whether the factory intake is a restriction.
Performance disclaimer: These figures are estimates only, not measured results for this specific intake. Actual gains vary with ECU calibration, turbocharger configuration, fuel quality, supporting modifications, ambient conditions, and dyno methodology.
Why Upgrade?
The factory intake system is designed around quiet operation, packaging, filtration, and everyday drivability. For enthusiasts modifying the Audi 4.0T V8 for higher output, the Untd. Performance Dual 6″ Velocity Cold Air Intake provides a high-capacity intake option intended to support increased airflow demands.
This upgrade can help:
- Increase intake airflow capacity for twin-turbo applications
- Reduce intake-side restrictions where the factory system becomes a limitation
- Enhance turbo spool and induction sound
- Complement Stage 1 and Stage 2 ECU tuning
- Support compatible hybrid-turbo and big-turbo builds
- Provide a performance-oriented intake solution for modified 4.0T V8 vehicles
For owners building a tuned S6, S7, or RS7, this intake is best suited to setups where airflow capacity and turbocharger performance are priorities.
