Masata Alloy Charge/Boost Pipe Kit MQB EA888 Gen3 1.8TSI/2.0TSI (60mm Turbo Outlet) Turbo-to-Intercooler Hardpipe Upgrade (Hot-Side Piping) – Audi A3/S3 8V, VW Golf MK7 GTI/R, Passat B8, Skoda Octavia vRS & Superb – DQ200/DQ250 – MST0044

Masata Alloy Boost Piping Kit for MQB EA888 Gen 3 60 mm Outlet – Part No. MST0044

Ditch fragile factory plastic pipework and unlock rock-solid boost control with the Masata alloy boost piping kit. Built for the MQB 1.8 TSI and 2.0 TSI EA888 Gen3 engines using the 60 mm turbo outlet, this CNC-machined hard pipe set replaces the compressor discharge tube and intercooler feed pipe with high strength aluminium for unbeatable reliability under load, sharper response and cleaner, more consistent power on mapped and standard cars alike.

Engineered for an OEM-plus install, Masata uses a precision billet flange to mate perfectly to the turbo outlet, retains the original mounting points and arrives with all required hardware for a straightforward bolt-on fit. The stealth black powder coated finish keeps things looking factory while massively upgrading durability compared to the stock plastic item.

We run this kit on our own builds and customer cars and it has been faultless. Feedback is consistent every time: faster spool, stronger mid-range, smoother delivery and peace of mind that split plastic pipes and boost leaks are a thing of the past. If you are pushing Stage 1 or Stage 2 software, this is a must-have reliability and performance mod.
