The AWE Tuning B8.5 3.0T S-FLO Intake was engineered in house to draw in large volumes of cool air to produce impressive power gains. The S-FLO Intake is now available as full S-FLO Carbon Intake, or ala carte as S-FLO Intake or S-FLO Filter.

S-FLO Carbon Intake: The full package

The AWE Tuning® S-FLO Carbon Intake is the full kit including all carbon, the full intake, filter and our engineered Nomex® reinforced silicon hose, and all necessary brackets and mounting hardware.

Why it works

Ambient air is drawn into the inlet in a ram-air fashion and fed beneath the S-FLO's carbon cover. The inlet provides the airbox with constant cold air, compared to an air intake that draws air from the hot engine bay. This cold air results in impressive power gains when filtered through the AWE Tuning S-FLO Intake.

Component details follow.

S-FLO Intake

The AWE Tuning S-FLO Intake was engineered to improve the 3.0T's ability to draw in cool air while creating impressive power gains.  

The AWE Tuning B8.5 3.0T S-FLO Intake uses a high flow, 4-ply Nomex®, fluorosilicone lined, steel wire reinforced silicon air tube to replace the restrictive factory hose. This high flow silicone tube allows cool air to travel freely to the motor. This specifically designed hose is engineered to have optimal flow geometry through the inlet, center section, and outlet of the tube. Furthermore, the silicone hose utilizes a molded lip to ensure a proper seal on both the S-FLO carbon air box (or factory airbox) and throttle body for longevity and reliable performance.

The S-FLO Intake includes all necessary installation hardware, and the proprietary S-FLO Filter, detailed below.

S-FLO Filter

The AWE Tuning B8.5 3.0T S-FLO Intake uses the proprietary S-FLO Filter. This is a washable, oiled, large cylindrical filter that has been tested to allow up to 34% more airflow than the factory paper filter. The S-FLO Filter is the largest filter that can fit within the air box.

The entirety of the S-FLO line up was designed and tested on AWE Tuning in house vehicles, and are cost effective, incredibly attractive upgrades.
