Carbonio Cold Air Intake |
Looking for
that proven performance boost for your Audi? The carbon fiber
cold air intake made by Carbonio is the key! This kit is specifically
designed for each vehicle and will free your car from the restriction.
Manufactured from aerospace grade carbon fiber,
Carbonio further improves this material by incorporating a proprietary
thermal barrier layer in its construction. This makes it extremely
lightweight and durable component that minimizes the temperature of the
air going into your car. This ensures that the engine optimizes power
by receiving the coldest and most oxygen rich air possible.

What is an
air intake?
Every vehicle
is equipped with an air intake. There is a world of a difference between
an aftermarket and OEM intake. Aftermarket intakes replaces the OEM
intake by a metal pipe with an air filter at the end. This creates a
performance boost due to its increased air volume intake. Many speculate
the amount of performance benefits that it provides, but depending on
how much the OEM intake restricted air flow the aftermarket will provide
performance enhancement accordingly. There is a debate between cold air
and short ram intakes. Many prefer cold air intakes due to its higher
increase in performance, but this risks the chance of hydro-locking.
Hydro-locking is when the air intake inducts water instead of air
causing the vehicle to shut down, but in horrid cases permanently
destroying the engine. Short ram intakes on the other hand does not
risk the chance of destroying the engine because the intake is within
the engine bay. Many debate the performance benefits for each, but there
is no conclusive data as to which is better. |
