With Forge Motorsport's in-house VW Golf MK8R development vehicle Forge Motorsport has been able to complete thorough testing on the EA888 gen4 platform, from rolling roads to track time. This has allowed Forge Motorsport to createFMINDK44, the second induction kit Forge Motorsport has available for the EA888 gen 3 and gen 4 platform (alongside Forge Motorsport's carbon fibre variant,FMINDK40). This kit features either a Forge MotorsportRam Airhigh flow, pleated, synthetic nanofiber filtration filter or aPipercrossfoam filter. Both are manufactured for optimum size and fit to the available space giving superior flow and filtration with enhanced breathing for the 2.0 turbo charged engine. It also features alarger surface area than the stock filterand many competitors’ alternatives.
The intake diameter has been carefully tuned to provide exactly the correct quantity of air forconsistent power gainsthroughout the rev range and minimising the chance of low-end torque loss; the pipework is specifically designed to feed the turbo without interruption. The result of this is a gain of induction acoustics under acceleration, whichimproves the driving experienceand adds a bit more drama to the EA888 engine. With the use of SolidWorks, Forge Motorsport's CAD engineers have designed the heat shroud to fit round all the contours of the engine bay. This shroud combined with Forge Motorsport's specially formulated thermal coatings protects the intake from radiant heat while also guiding the cold air from the OE cold air ducting to the filter and housing.
The majority of Forge Motorsport's dyno testing was done on Forge Motorsport's VW Golf R MK8 EA888 Gen 4, as such you may find slight variations in gains when fitted to other vehicles sharing this engine. During the final prototypes testing Forge Motorsport found that the induction kit with stock turbo inlet produced gains on average of3.5BHP. However, when paired with Forge Motorsport's turbo inlet adaptorFMTIA5(RHD),FMTIA6, orFMTIA9(LHD), orFMINLMK7, this is where the stock EA888 gen4 engine saw impressive gains,increasing power up to 13BHPat 6500RPM with a significant average power increase from 4500RPM to the 6700RPM Rev limit of 8BHP; while the drivability and the punch from extra torque increases can be
