APR Boost Tap - 1.8T / 2.0T EA888 Gen 3 MQB - MS100101

Overview:Traditionally boost is tapped by spacing out the factory T-MAP sensor on top of the intake manifold. However, APR's engineers discovered using this location lead to inconsistencies in intake air temperature readings and potentially a loss of power. Upon this discovery, APR's engineering team went back to the drawing board and came up with a new and unique solution. Utilizing the included punch tool on a warm engine, a boost and vacuum reference port is easily spread opened on the factory intake manifold. The billet aluminum boost tap then connects to the port and uses dual Viton o-ring seals for leak free operation. The reference hoses connect to the rear of the tap via a barbed stainless steel connection point and conveniently routes through the engine bay. In addition to the boost tap, APR provides several extra components to help suit each individual's needs. For those requiring more than one reference source, a T-fitting allows for more tapping points. In the case wh
