An actual uninstall and Install with start to finish steps! Seen a lot of vids where it’s remove this bolt then cut to next segment “okay guys now the car is completely apart” glad to see thorough step by steps much appreciated!
@@joshwalling4633 that’s to be expected though, so glad I came across this channel, building my 2017 gli and it’s the first time I’ve ever done anything like this and you definitely saved me a head ache and a few hours figuring out what screws to take out and not to take out so for that thank you.
Thanks for the feedback. Buy a whole set of torx bits. All of them. They will serve you well in the future. T15, T25 are both very common, with T25 probably being the most common. Either way, you’ll just want a set of them.
All I know is that it had something to do with the old air intake connecting directly into the air filter box because it was one of the first hoses that needed to come off.
@@taintmeat970 I ended up breaking a a small plastic piece off but it took a good 15-20 min of me just trying to loosen it up and it’s eventually popped off
Sorry I just saw this. Is this the hose that has the clip you are supposed to squeeze? It’s SUPER difficult to get off, but you need to squeeze the connector portion as you push towards the pipe (to release the clip) then pull away while continuing to squeeze. It isn’t easy, but it is also easy to break.
Hey I’m getting a Jetta mark 5 Jetta and I really like your videos and I’d enjoy to see more aha like possibly changing the steering wheel and exhaust sound aha
I noticed you said the hose in the back for the vent case had to be trimmed as well .but since y’all didn’t show it was it just to long or what like does that have to be done for it to fit . I just added this but don’t want any issues I thought everything just connects to stock without modification
Have the same intake (not installed yet) for the same car. And now have the opportunity to get an AWE Touring cat back exhaust for good price. Do you think these parts will work well together on a stock no tune car? Thanks Shaun PS Best how to video I've seem. Excellent work.
Hey I just did this install today, everything went well but I have a question and I wonder if you can shed some insight. When you're removing the T25 that holds down the air box, you mention it doesn't come out all the way. How do I mount the elbow pipes feet to that screw position? Do I just Yank it out?
Hey Josh, great video really helped with the CAI install on my MK6 GLI. Now I have a question, installed this exactly a week ago and now I've got a CEL with a P2004 code- intake manifold cylinder 1 remaining open. Any thoughts on if this is related at all? I think it may be covered under ext. warranty but before I go pay the hour mechanic service fee I'd like to get your opinion. Car runs great boost kicks around 2400 RPM like normal in 3rd and 4th, I notice a subtle engine strain when downshifting to second but the power is still 100% there.
Intake manifolds have an internal flap, from what I know this is a common failure point. Totally unrelated to the intake itself. The flap changes the “length” of the intake runners. Most dealers seem to be replacing the entire intake manifold. My suggestion? Get it repaired under warranty and ask if you can add a intake port cleaning service into it (and just pay out of pocket).
Hey quick question guys anyone can answer this I’d be extremely grateful I have a P0045 error code What the hell am I looking for I have not been able to find anything resembles a Solenoid coming off my turbo turbo I’ll have a Passat 14 1.8
Idk man, my last two TSI’s have all sounded like that. Just noisy as all heck but nothing was wrong with them. I’m pretty sure these have hydraulic valve lash adjusters so not sure where else the tick would come from. Not sure though.
I think it will, as long as its the same engine code! Check with a supplier! I know for sure this intake works for CPLA and CPPA engines from 2015-2018 :D
Did you do anything special to remove the PCV Hose from the intake pipe? I can not pull that hose off at all lol. It seems like you pulled it off so easily.
@@zanem499 hey, I can’t remember exactly tbh. But from what I remember what Josh said is correct regarding squeezing collar. I had a really tough time getting that thing removed. But I had to get some pliers and squeeze the collar first and pulled off the hose at the same time.
It won’t be an exact match, but the processes of installing an intake aren’t really much different. If you looked at this video and thought “well I think I can handle this,” then you’ll be fine. We’ve installed intakes before, but this was our first time installing an intake on this particular engine - which goes to show how similar intake installs are across most vehicles.
Gonna be honest, these are my least favorite comments. You’ll need tools to work on your car, a whole set. If you have a VW you’ll want a full set of torx bits and triple squares. You do that, and you’ll be able to tackle any job pretty much. Open the engine bay, take a look around and familiarize yourself with what you’ll need, and you’ll also get more familiar with the intake layout/structures. You aren’t the first person who’s asked about tools, this is just my personal view on how to approach working on your car. You don’t need to be told that you’ll need a T15 bit, a T25 bit, a 13mm wrench… etc. etc. That, IMO, is a bridge too far in terms of hand-holding.
Squeeze the collar together from opposite sides, push in toward the intake pipe as you do this, and then pull away. Some people use channel locks but you can break the plastic easier.
I made a mistake and did not connect the vacuum line that goes from the bottom to the Intake Solenoid, only took me 2 days to realize though. There any chance I messed something up or should I be alright? No engine lights or anything. 2.0T.
I personally would not dyno a car to find out if I got 5 HP or not. If you want great sound, install an intake, if you’re looking for more power then get a tune. My thoughts on it at least.
I have the “breather tube” on my mk6 gti. didn’t completely understand what you guys said in the video, is it possible just for me to leave the tube hanging or is there something additional for me to do
Grandioso video. Perdona el idioma. Tenemos un mk6 gli y me encanto la instalación de intake. Donde puedo comprarlo?. Tienen la página o el lugar para comprarlo?. 🙏
Josh Walling traductiong: Great video. Forgive the language. We have a mk6 gli and I loved the intake facility. Where can I buy it?. Do you have the page or the place to buy it? 🙏
Thanks for the translation! It’s a CTS Turbo intake, so you can get it directly through them at CTSturbo.com, but it’s also available at UroTuning, ECS Tuning, and probably a few others as well. Hopefully that helps!
There was a thin hose on the original stock that was positioned to the left side of the air filter casing. The other end of it connects somewhere to the engine. I've watched several videos of different types of air intake install they either mention to take it out or it is never mentioned but at the end result it has been detached from the old air filter casing. My question is that no one ever mentioned what happens to that hose. Is it just left alone unattached or does it need to be plugged? Just not sure what to do with it. My 2016 VW Jetta GLI 2.0L does not come with an SAI inlet and I thought that thin hose had something to do with it but it wasn't the case.
The 1 inch breather filter you talk about at the end.. you clip into the small hose that you pull off off of the original filter box? And it just hangs there? Mine seems like it was only really fastened by the connection to the filter box..
The heat shield that I have on it is a smaller one and doesn’t have a hole for the SAI breather adapter to go in ? Does the breather filter just go into the SAI hose ?
Hey it has been a very long time since I’ve done this. Maybe someone else can chime in. The SAI hose doesn’t get connected to anything other than the new filter and filter adapter.
Where does that connection at 5:00 go or connect to? I know it connects to the top of the OEM Air Box and I noticed you guys just tucked it away after installing the CTS intake.
You mean the one going to the SAI pump (secondary air injection)? You’ll need to get an adapter and a small breather filter from CTS turbo for the cars with an SAI pump. We didn’t show it because the owner ordered the kit for the wrong engine code / wasn’t aware you had to order this add on. Essentially, a little baby filter goes on the end of it.
Some cars have a secondary air pump and some don’t. For those that do, you need a breather filter adapter and a breather filter (available from CTS, somewhere on their website).
just curiosity.. i know with the aftermarket intake the sound increases. but, has anyone tried leaving the stock rear pipe and just replacing the air box with the CTS filter?. i really dont see much of a difference between the stock n the aftermarket pipes. Any thoughts?
I didn’t really measure them at the time, and it’s been a while, but I’d say it probably just looks better. I’ve always said intakes are for sound and looks. Just a fun and easy mod to do.
Does this intake add horsepower from stock or just better airflow / efficiency compared to stock? Thanks in advance I want to do some minor mods to my 1.8T Passat appreciate your vids! Lights on point! Lol Peace
Right on, thanks for the reply! Yes it sounds way better for sure. Do you recommend a tune for the 1.8? I know it's not meant to be a speed demon for sure, but it is such a nice engine, and car what would you go with if you had to pick?
Jake Smith Roger that! Thanks for the info! By the way what are the beverages in hand in this vid? 😋😁 Keep making videos you guys are great and funny together. Good times and cheers!
Joshua Walling Some cars produce different hp stock.Sometimes an off shelf tune will yield only 15 hp .Most tunes run the same price anyways.Off shelf or not. In my case ,my stock 1.8 jetta put down 180/209 .Thats with 80k miles and no carbon cleaning.An off shelf tune would be a waste. He needs a baseline dyno to see exactly what his car puts down.
APR stage 1 tune for the 1:8 turbo gen 3 Passat will get you a 40hp/40-45ft lbs of torque bump. Add in some of the less restrictive turbo inlet and discharge pipes and you can be at 220-230hp safely from a car that came stock at 170hp. Much more fun grocery getter....lol
Hi. I have the same engine and the intake after the turbo have oil. That's in the maf end make it the engine light on. Is it normal to have aoil in the intake after the turbo?
Great question. If I understand you correctly, you are saying that there is oil in the charge pipes AFTER the turbo. Some oil is normal because modern engines vent the crank case into the intake for emissions purposes, which can include oil vapor (see the PCV valve from the valve cover to the intake pipe). A LOT of oil is not normal. Either way, get it checked out if you aren’t comfortable with it.
Sorry man, at this point I don’t remember - however if a job ever requires special tools I am sure to list them. This one, however, can be done with a metric tool set and a set of torx bits.
Hey quick question, I’m new to the VW world, do you need a tune after installing the intake? Coming from a Subaru owner, knowing I have to do a tune after for almost everything on Subies?
Nope, no tune needed for just an intake. Fun and simple mod. If you upgrade your downpipe, you will need a “stage 2” tune, or at least that is what most VW tuners call it.
No, but they are childish and annoying as all heck. The BOV adapters for these cars are a party trick, equally as terrible as burble/crackle/pops tunes.
Would anyone know why I am missing the hose for that smaller breather filter? It has never been touched before. Do some Jetta versions come without this? Do I need to install the secondary breather filter or am I okay without it? Please help.
Probably ECS tuning or FCP euro. If not, just remove it and take it down to your local dealer, they should have one and the part number is probably on the part itself.
Josh Walling appreciate the response, I ended up buying it from ECS. Just bought a CTS turbo high flow downpipe and had to replace the intake manifold. I’m hoping to do stage 2 this summer
Hey, you mentioned what sounded like a "breather filter" at 8:12 and that it didn't come with the CTS kit. Is this something necessary to get as the car didn't originally have one? Or was it just a nice thing to update? Would this be it? www.moddedeuros.com/products/cts-turbo-sai-breather-filter-billet-adapter
I’m not clear on what you are asking me. I think you should do more research into your car’s intake system and the aftermarket ones you are looking at.
There is no blow off valve on these cars. There are diverter valves. I’m not sure about this particular car, but on my other VW’s they are integrated into the turbo/manifold - sometimes more visible from underneath the car.
@@joshwalling4633 thank you! Where is the diverter valve in this case? I bough this torque solution blow off valve adapter. I was just wondering where it should be installed
It should be installed between the diverter valve and the housing it’s bolted to. I feel like there should’ve been installation instructions. If not, check the Torque Solution website to see if they have them available for download.
@@joshwalling4633 thank you. But that's is my question where is the diverter valve located?? Is it the one on the back driver side of the engine just below the intake pipe?
Some VW’s do that when you are in park hahaha, it’s not a two step - they are just trying to prevent you from revving in park. My MkV GLI did the same thing.
I make these videos for free in my free time solely to help people learn. If you can’t figure it out from this video then I don’t know what to tell you.
Take your car into the dealership. Could be an exhaust leak, but could also be an actual gas leak. I wouldn’t mess around... also.... increase your insurance coverage and reduce your deductibles lol.
I had a similar issue on my 2016 Volkswagen Jetta GLI 2.0T, only I smelled gas when walking up to the car a random moments. Turned out to be a gas leak. Common issue I was told, thankfully it was still covered.
Hey guys, I just installed the intake on my 15’ jetta 1.8t and the check engine light came on, I checked everything and everything is tighten up... I noticed the rpms kinda bouncing when idle the engine... any idea???
Josh Walling I figured it out.. I think, I connected the vacuum line over the plastic cover lol so it was completely blocked... I fixed it and now it runs as smooth as before.
What happens to the small vacuum hose plugged into the left side of the old air box? After install mine is just dangling somewhere. What’s it for and is it important/ is there anything I should do with it?
Hey i have the same problem, i never got the brass little piece its supposed to come with, i just tryed to stretch the hoes and zip tie it to the hole under the metal piece between the silicon connector and pod filter. Honestly idk if it does anything, ive had it unconnected for a while on accident and idk what it does
Hes talking about the vacuum hoes around 6:57 in the video I had to stretch mine to fit, but it still falls off, and now its torn (in case you know the replacement part number)

Good video. Just need to add the different torx sizes you use to remove the box and other tools needed to put the heat shield together.

If you fit it up right without trimming than it’s fine. We just massaged the fitment a bit. I don’t remember exactly what we did tbh.
Show how you guys place a blow off valve on this specific car because I’m struggling with mine
I’d recommend staying with the OEM diverted valve or the GFB DV+ if you really want to modify it.
Josh Walling that’s what I did and it’s great! Def a pain to install though

How much is the performance difference?

Squeeze the collar together from opposite sides, push in toward the intake pipe as you do this, and then pull away. Some people use channel locks but you can break the plastic easier.
Did you leave your maf unplugged or did you reuse the old one?
I definitely did not leave the MAF unplugged. I believe the car in this video uses a MAP sensor, so you may have a different car.
when i ordered it off of modded euros, it said it fit my car, now i have to drill a hole into the pipe going into the intake😅

@@joshwalling4633 okay so no definitive answer is a 'no' to me.

We didn’t show it because the owner ordered the kit for the wrong engine code / wasn’t aware you had to order this add on. Essentially, a little baby filter goes on the end of it.
@@joshwalling4633 Thanks for the reply and info. Great work on the video, the steps will be helpful once my stuff comes in.
could you explain the breather filter a little more. i’m a little confused @8:12
Some cars have a secondary air pump and some don’t. For those that do, you need a breather filter adapter and a breather filter (available from CTS, somewhere on their website).
just curiosity.. i know with the aftermarket intake the sound increases. but, has anyone tried leaving the stock rear pipe and just replacing the air box with the CTS filter?. i really dont see much of a difference between the stock n the aftermarket pipes. Any thoughts?
I didn’t really measure them at the time, and it’s been a while, but I’d say it probably just looks better. I’ve always said intakes are for sound and looks. Just a fun and easy mod to do.
Why add a different filter? Does this improve fuel consumption?
No, this in mainly for aesthetic reasons and induction noise in my opinion.
Can you tell please was Gen 3 engine on Jetta mk6 2012-2013 years or it was gen 2?
I have no idea honestly
Does this intake add horsepower from stock or just better airflow / efficiency compared to stock? Thanks in advance I want to do some minor mods to my 1.8T Passat appreciate your vids! Lights on point! Lol Peace
Right on, thanks for the reply! Yes it sounds way better for sure. Do you recommend a tune for the 1.8? I know it's not meant to be a speed demon for sure, but it is such a nice engine, and car what would you go with if you had to pick?
tim warumzer You really want power get a dyno tune,intake and full turbo back exhaust.
Thatll net you about 80 more hp at the wheels with a good tune.
Jake Smith Roger that! Thanks for the info! By the way what are the beverages in hand in this vid? 😋😁 Keep making videos you guys are great and funny together. Good times and cheers!
Joshua Walling Some cars produce different hp stock.Sometimes an off shelf tune will yield only 15 hp .Most tunes run the same price anyways.Off shelf or not.
In my case ,my stock 1.8 jetta put down 180/209 .Thats with 80k miles and no carbon cleaning.An off shelf tune would be a waste.
He needs a baseline dyno to see exactly what his car puts down.
APR stage 1 tune for the 1:8 turbo gen 3 Passat will get you a 40hp/40-45ft lbs of torque bump. Add in some of the less restrictive turbo inlet and discharge pipes and you can be at 220-230hp safely from a car that came stock at 170hp. Much more fun grocery getter....lol
Hi. I have the same engine and the intake after the turbo have oil. That's in the maf end make it the engine light on. Is it normal to have aoil in the intake after the turbo?
Great question. If I understand you correctly, you are saying that there is oil in the charge pipes AFTER the turbo. Some oil is normal because modern engines vent the crank case into the intake for emissions purposes, which can include oil vapor (see the PCV valve from the valve cover to the intake pipe).
A LOT of oil is not normal. Either way, get it checked out if you aren’t comfortable with it.
What tools did you use exactly?
Can you list the tools you used?
Sorry man, at this point I don’t remember - however if a job ever requires special tools I am sure to list them. This one, however, can be done with a metric tool set and a set of torx bits.
Does that car have a bov on it?
Those 2 clamps in the back sucked
Do you need a tune for this?
Nope!
Hey quick question, I’m new to the VW world, do you need a tune after installing the intake?
Coming from a Subaru owner, knowing I have to do a tune after for almost everything on Subies?
No its when you get into the downpipe
Nope, no tune needed for just an intake. Fun and simple mod. If you upgrade your downpipe, you will need a “stage 2” tune, or at least that is what most VW tuners call it.
Cts also has an outlet pipe, so I’m guessing that’s opposite of the intake? Worth getting that along with this?
Also along with a cts blow off valve kit?
Big negative on the blow off valve kit, and outlet pipe is more for improving flow, you could easily do without it.
@@joshwalling4633 a gotcha. BOV ruin the performance?
No, but they are childish and annoying as all heck. The BOV adapters for these cars are a party trick, equally as terrible as burble/crackle/pops tunes.
Would anyone know why I am missing the hose for that smaller breather filter? It has never been touched before. Do some Jetta versions come without this? Do I need to install the secondary breather filter or am I okay without it? Please help.
Hey I know this is an older comment but in case you never found out, some jettas don't come with it!
@@mil_er Thank you brother! I appreciate you.
@@cudeh2869 no worries dude!
From cts do you know the exact part number thanks for the video to bro...
I don’t, if you contact CTS they will know what you are talking about.
So I accidentally broke the PCV hose when installing this on my 2014 gli gen3. Is there anywhere you know of that sells that specific hose for my car?
Probably ECS tuning or FCP euro. If not, just remove it and take it down to your local dealer, they should have one and the part number is probably on the part itself.
Josh Walling appreciate the response, I ended up buying it from ECS. Just bought a CTS turbo high flow downpipe and had to replace the intake manifold. I’m hoping to do stage 2 this summer
Hey, you mentioned what sounded like a "breather filter" at 8:12 and that it didn't come with the CTS kit. Is this something necessary to get as the car didn't originally have one? Or was it just a nice thing to update? Would this be it?
www.moddedeuros.com/products/cts-turbo-sai-breather-filter-billet-adapter
You would only need it if your car has an SAI pump. That link you posted looks to be it, but please check with CTS website for fitment related issues.
does the stock come with a pressure sensor in the box, do we need that for the install? if so, where does it go?
Huh? You mean the MAP sensor? That is already on your car from factory.
Josh Walling but isn’t there a sensor in the stock box that helps the ecu do its thing?
I’m not clear on what you are asking me. I think you should do more research into your car’s intake system and the aftermarket ones you are looking at.
Yeah that sensor is not there in the tsi facelift is just the box and pipes, so Check engine light shouldn’t rear it’s head after the upgrade ?
Nope, not if it’s installed properly.
Hey guys, where is the blow off valve in this Jetta? Im trying to find mine and I believe is the one right on the back, below the I take pipe. Is it?
There is no blow off valve on these cars. There are diverter valves. I’m not sure about this particular car, but on my other VW’s they are integrated into the turbo/manifold - sometimes more visible from underneath the car.
@@joshwalling4633 thank you! Where is the diverter valve in this case? I bough this torque solution blow off valve adapter. I was just wondering where it should be installed
It should be installed between the diverter valve and the housing it’s bolted to. I feel like there should’ve been installation instructions. If not, check the Torque Solution website to see if they have them available for download.
@@joshwalling4633 thank you. But that's is my question where is the diverter valve located?? Is it the one on the back driver side of the engine just below the intake pipe?
I don’t have this car, so I’m not sure, but if you get under your car and inspect the turbo area I’m sure you’ll find it.
10:57 it sounded like u were in 2 step
10:58 ***
Some VW’s do that when you are in park hahaha, it’s not a two step - they are just trying to prevent you from revving in park. My MkV GLI did the same thing.
TW A, mate, you gotta relax. You are just going aggro on everyone in the comments.
Should really show everything step by step
I make these videos for free in my free time solely to help people learn. If you can’t figure it out from this video then I don’t know what to tell you.
Just a quick question, is the breathing filter important or can it be left open like in this video.
I think it’s important to keep dirt and contaminants out of the SAI pump. I wouldn’t drive with it open for very long.
@@joshwalling4633 ok awesome. Thanks
Quick question! I got a 2012 Jetta 1.8 TSI, everytime i turn the AC on it smells like gas, what do you think the problem may be?
Take your car into the dealership. Could be an exhaust leak, but could also be an actual gas leak. I wouldn’t mess around... also.... increase your insurance coverage and reduce your deductibles lol.
I had a similar issue on my 2016 Volkswagen Jetta GLI 2.0T, only I smelled gas when walking up to the car a random moments. Turned out to be a gas leak. Common issue I was told, thankfully it was still covered.
Hey guys, I just installed the intake on my 15’ jetta 1.8t and the check engine light came on, I checked everything and everything is tighten up... I noticed the rpms kinda bouncing when idle the engine... any idea???
Sounds like you have a leak somewhere. Check all the vacuum lines and make sure the turbo inlet pipe is on properly. Other than that I have no idea.
Josh Walling I figured it out.. I think, I connected the vacuum line over the plastic cover lol so it was completely blocked... I fixed it and now it runs as smooth as before.
Excellent!
Do you have the CTS throttle pipe also or is this just the CAI?
Just the CAI.
I install the same cold air intake and my car makes a weird noise at high rpm anybody know why ??
Does it sound like an old school train horn haha or what does it sound like?
@@nip2121 🤣🤣 exactly what could be?
@@c.g.4195 diverter valve! You need to buy the latest revision diverter valve
does this need any kind of reprogramming the car system
Nope, you can install a properly designed intake like this and not do anything else to the car.
do you know if the 2.0t air intake will fit the same?
I doubt it, I think the turbo inlet design is different.
What happens to the small vacuum hose plugged into the left side of the old air box? After install mine is just dangling somewhere. What’s it for and is it important/ is there anything I should do with it?
If it’s the inlet to the SAI pump then CTS makes a breather filter that attaches to it.
Hey i have the same problem, i never got the brass little piece its supposed to come with, i just tryed to stretch the hoes and zip tie it to the hole under the metal piece between the silicon connector and pod filter. Honestly idk if it does anything, ive had it unconnected for a while on accident and idk what it does
Hes talking about the vacuum hoes around 6:57 in the video
I had to stretch mine to fit, but it still falls off, and now its torn (in case you know the replacement part number)
