The AWE S-FLO Intake for the B8 Audi S5 4.2-liter V8 replaces the factory intake path with AWE's two core S-FLO parts: the washable S-FLO Filter and a high-flow 4-ply Nomex, fluorosilicone-lined, steel-wire-reinforced silicone air tube.
The tube is shaped for smooth flow through its inlet, center section and outlet and seals to the airbox with a custom molded lip. AWE measured 34% more airflow than stock and max gains of 11 hp and 9 lb-ft of torque at the crank on the naturally aspirated V8, along with a sharper intake note.
It is the first step of AWE's S-FLO upgrade path for the S5 4.2. Adding the AWE S-FLO Carbon Cover (2660-11012) turns it into the full enclosed S-FLO Carbon Intake. Like every S-FLO part, it was designed, engineered and tested in-house at AWE.
