We are pleased to announce our latest product from our motorsport development on the Golf 7 and MQB platform cars the VWR CUP EDITION INTAKE SYSTEM.

We have developed this for our Golf 7 Volkswagen Racing Cup car program so branded Cup Edition, and are now offering it for race or as a fast-road upgrade.

This new Cup Edition intake replaces the entire restrictive standard air box on the factory Golf 7 GTI and Golf 7 R, plus other MQB cars using the 2.0 TSI EA888 engine, such as Audi S3 and Leon Cupra 280.

Cold air is drawn through the standard front panel aperture into the filter chamber area. Intake air temperature is protected from the heat of the engine bay with a fully-formed CAD-designed aluminium heat shield which seals against the underside of the bonnet/hood and extends right underneath the filter chamber area.

The VWR Cup Edition Intake System comes with an oversized domed High-Flow TriFoam air filter designed to provide increased surface area and dust capacity. This extra surface area provides even more airflow with lower restriction, to ensure that the largest volumes of the coolest possible air is available to the engine at all times. This maximizes efficiency and improves drivability and torque throughout the rev range - turbocharger spool dropped nearly 500 RPMs, reducing turbo lag and creating faster turbo response.

All parts have been developed exclusively for Golf 7/MQB meaning that fitting is very straightforward, and the original mounting points are retained. This is the attention to detail that makes the VWR parts different - careful engineering for a perfect fit and function The VWR Cup Edition intake integrates seamlessly with the factory management system to provide the perfect basis for modifying the car or as an essential part of higher-level tuning along with remapping or exhaust upgrades.

CONSTRUCTION

The VWR Cup Edition domed intake filter itself is constructed from a TriFoam triple-layer laminate of open-cell polyurethane foam, which gives an exceptionally high level of filtration to protect the engine from contaminants in the air down to well below 5 microns, whilst not greatly restricting airflow. This exact same filter material is used by F1 teams around the world due to its excellent filtration and airflow properties. In our experience, cheaper (and single-layer) foam filter materials are unable to deliver the same flow and filtration meaning a potentially very risky compromise for your engine.

The end result of our development is the exact Cold-Air Intake System that we use in our Cup race cars, which also makes for one of the most popular modifications for a road car.

AIRFLOW

Through keeping intake temperatures as low as possibly, and greatly improving airflow into the engine, more power is produced, turbo lag is reduced and better fuel efficiency is achieved. Our development has shown that a high-flow intake system on the Golf 7 / MQB EA888 engines really only gives worthwhile gains once power outputs reach over 300bhp up to that level, the original factory intake is satisfactory, especially when combined with a VWR High Flow Panel Filter. So to really get the most from the VWR Cup Edition intake, its fitment should be combined with a reputable ECU upgrade.

Our testing on the VWR Cup Edition Intake on a Stage 1 Golf 7 R has given gains of 16bhp, or around 5% more effective peak power compared with the standard factory air box. Yet testing on cars up to 360bhp (and even beyond) shows further increased power improvements from the VWR Cup Edition Intake system, as the standard air box and filter reaches and exceeds its airflow limit. and in some cases at 500rpm less revs in doing so. With higher powered cars, so come greater gains.

DESIGN

The intake uses a fully formed black powder-coated aluminium shield which separates the high flow triple-layer filter from the hot air of the engine bay. The shield extends not only up to the underside of the hood/bonnet, but also underneath the filter unit ensuring the best possible separation of cold, fresh air from the heated air of the rest of the under-bonnet area.

The VWR intake uses only the highest quality materials, all built and hand-assembled in the UK. As a ram air style intake, it draws cold, dense air directly from the front edge of the front panel under the bonnet's leading edge. Meanwhile, the filter shield ensures that intake air is principally drawn from outside the engine bay not the hot air from the engine bay that can affect non-enclosed intake designs without a well-designed heat shield.

SOUND QUALITY

As a race-bred intake system, you can hear the rich induction noise as soon as you first accelerate hard. With the increased airflow from this system, you will also not miss the sound of the diverter valve opening when you lift between gears. However volume levels are well-contained, and the sound quality is music to the ears of any enthusiastic driver!



MORE INFORMATION

Please note that non-enclosed air intakes such as this VWR Cup Edition Intake are not legal for use in some countries/US states. For these markets, either the forthcoming VWR Full Intake system or the VWR Panel Air Filter will be ideal.

Sadly, DNF
Format: Kindle
I read this thru KU. I LOVED the synopsis. And then I began reading... and it was a DNF at 68% after picking it up and putting it down several times because I really loved the main female character. *****SPOILERS***** Pros: The world is unique, intriguing and fun. The primary female character is bad-a** but not a b*tech or a mary sue. The primary female has depth. I really want to know what happens to her even tho it's been weeks and I don't remember her name. The villains to the point I read are pretty good -- an ever present threat of mysterious and possibly many culprits. Cons: Way, way too many points of view. I stopped counting at 7. It's the prime reason why I don't care about most of the characters or remember their names even when I like them. There's just too many points of view so almost none of the characters have enough book space for the author to properly develop them. This literally killed the book for me. Actually it killed my desire to read. For weeks. The main male is more villain than hero. He agreed to marry the main female then locks her up & eschews her for her sister, all while bad mouthing her as unfit to rule when he never spent any time with her getting to know her. He is actually unfit to rule as he is blind to the woes of his own kingdom and starts off a peace mission to secure a ceasefire through marriage by murdering an inn full of people in her country for no real reason. Plus, he constantly makes promises he does not keep. And it's gross of him to pine for the sister behind the main female's back. ***** As much as I really wanted to see what happened to the main female character, it wasn't enough for me to keep trying to slog thru this book. There was a lot of potential here that just fell short. Hence, 3 stars.

Fae Courts with High Intrigue
Format: Kindle
This book is one that just builds and builds and then surprises you to no end. You may think you know the villains and then you are jolted in another direction. Princess Reyna is a real gem, strong of character, a fierce fighter, and loyal to her family and kingdom. Just when you think she and Lorcan, well you know, the plot is flipped. Can't wait to see where this goes in book two.

Slow, sorry but good
Format: Kindle
This was a slow moving book. Lots of character pov chapters, lots of superfluous descriptions and endless courtly appearances stalled this book to start. Once you get into the heart of the story, it takes off. Before you know it the book is done. My favorite character is Reyna. She is so strong. She is true to herself. She gets into a lot of trouble with her headstrong ways but it's entertaining. I have high hopes for Lorcan. He is honorable to a fault. Thane had turned out to be better than I thought but i still don't like him. Eislin is useless. Great plot twists at the end. I'm looking forward too book 2.

Very detailed! Beautiful world building! Strong Heroine!
Format: Kindle
Starts off a little slow and confusing with different POV’s, but starts to all come together towards the middle to make an elaborate plot line and makes it all worth it. Beautiful world building and attention to detail as well as great writing. The cliffhanger was gut wrenching! Can’t wait for the next book!

Interesting
Format: Kindle
This was a very captivating book once you got into it thoroughly. But the third person perspective was a bit hard to get used to. But as you got into it and followed the different characters, it was interesting and filled with intrigue, conflict and forbidden love. I can’t wait to read the next one and to complete the series.
