034Motorsport's X34 Cold Air Intake System delivers improved power, sound, and acceleration to B9 Audi S4/S5 owners in a clean OEM+ package.
Through extensive evaluation of the factory airbox design, 034Motorsport's engineers were able to create a performance replacement that allows for increased airflow to the turbocharger and engine. The X34 Air Intake System offers measurable performance improvements, simple bolt-on installation, and unsurpassed fit and finish.
NOTE: X34 Carbon Fiber Intake Air Duct sold separately.
Significant effort went into developing this comprehensive performance intake solution for the turbocharged 3.0 TFSI engine found in the latest generation B9 Audi S4/S5. Subsequently, the X34 Cold Air Intake System offers discerning enthusiasts measurable increases in horsepower and torque, sporty induction and turbocharger sounds, and a beautiful carbon fiber airbox and inlet pipe design.
Throughout the development process, multiple designs were modeled, prototyped, and tested - all to ensure that the X34 Cold Air Intake System delivers measurable performance benefits and superb fitment. The result is a partially-enclosed airbox which uses the factory fresh air inlet duct and heat shield, while housing a massive 5" inlet conical air filter, and a matching CFD-optimized carbon fiber filter tube.

Dyno-Proven Performance Gains
The X34 Carbon Fiber Cold Air Intake System for B9 Audi S4/S5 was engineered with performance in mind, and is a free-flowing replacement for the factory airbox and turbocharger inlet hose. As the development of this intake progressed, the X34 Cold Air Intake System yielded measurable reduction in pressure drop at the turbo inlet compared to the factory airbox, with a corresponding increase in horsepower and torque throughout the powerband.
Peak Horsepower and Torque
- Stock Intake: 401 Horsepower / 424 Foot-Pounds of Torque
- X34 Intake: 412 Horsepower / 425 Foot-Pounds of Torque
Peak Gains in Horsepower and Torque
- Peak Horsepower Gain: 19 HP @ 4,950 RPM
- Peak Torque Gain: 20 FT-LBS @ 4,950 RPM
Pressure Drop Reduction
- Stock Intake: Peak Pressure Drop of 2.22 PSI at 6,500 RPM
- X34 Intake: Peak Pressure Drop of 1.64 PSI at 6,500 RPM
Test Conditions: Dyno testing was performed on a stock 2018 Audi S4 3.0 TFSI using 91 octane fuel, piggyback, and 034Motorsport High Flow Cat.

Sounds and Looks Amazing
TLDR: One of the best less expensive options for the B9 Platform. PROS: Sounds really good. Lots of turbo and induction noise. Carbon Fiber looks great. Glossy carbon looks really nice in the engine bay. Installation was easy and filter was pre-oiled. One of the cheaper options for the B9 Platform. CONS: Sticker is starting to peel off from the heat of the engine bay The fitment to the factory air scoop is not perfect. The opening on the intake is a bit larger than the factory air scoop. I had to heat and mold the factory air scoop to better fit the intake.
