Engine cover for induction kit ?

[Joshua Ward]

Didnt know how to word this but does anyone know if there is a plastic engine cover you can get that doesn't contain the air filter for if you have an induction kit sort of like the crappy fiestas engine cover?

How this made sense.

Thanks in advanced

TTS engine cover. About £120 + fitting kit.

As mentioned by Sam, the TTS engine cover is the way to go but Audi do not want you to do this modification. It is held onto the engine with 2 long ball head bolts and one tiny ball head bolt. They will sell you the cover and the tiny bolt but unless you can prove you have a TTS and can provide evidence that your original bolts are damaged in some way you have got no chance of buying the long bolts.
So some companies started making their own versions of the long bolt and so that is the best option. From what I can see, all of the aftermarket bolts are made from aluminium so you must take care not to over tighten on installation. Here is a link to AKS tuning who sell a whole kit and about the best bolts. I was lucky and managed to buy a couple of genuine Audi bolts from a company in Germany a couple of years ago before Audi said no!

Here is a picture of a TTS cover on my S3 with a modified Revo intake.

Are you sure they will be able to supply the genuine long bolts?

Those bolts in the link are made from aluminium and that particular bolt from that seller is very prone to breaking if you add too much tightening torque - Avoid!!!

Aluminium does fine , as long as people do what you said and don't over tighten them which you don't have to do to keep cover on
