The best intake in the world for the 3.0 Supercharged V6 engine. Bar none.

After more than 12 years of owning, testing, and pushing the limits of the B8 Audi S4, Can Auto Performance (CAP) is proud to unveil the most advanced intake system ever created for the 2012–2018 C7/C7.5 Audi A6 and A7.

Our obsession with this platform runs deep. Over the years, the CAP team has owned more than a dozen vehicles equipped with the legendary 3.0T supercharged V6 engine. We’ve tested and compared nearly every intake system available — always looking for ways to push performance further.

In 2018, we introduced our first intake (V1) as a high-quality, direct-fit alternative that let owners enjoy easy horsepower gains and a louder supercharger whine without overspending. A few years later, we launched the V2 — improving materials, increasing filter size, and enhancing overall build quality, while still maintaining a competitive price.

But even before the V2 hit the market, we had already started working on the next evolution. For years, we’ve obsessed over every detail of what would become the V3 Intake — determined to create not just a great option, but the undisputed best intake available for this platform. Every detail was pushed to the limit: we 3D-scanned the engine bay to maximize usable space, redesigned every dimension for perfect fit and flow, and created new molds for even the smallest intake accessories to deliver uncompromised performance.

3.0T SUPERCHARGED V6 4" (102mm) INTAKE - #1 MOD FOR ANY AUDI WITH THE 3.0T

The result? A no-compromise intake system that sets a new benchmark for the C7/C7.5 A6 and A7.

Introducing the CAP V3 4" (102mm) Intake — Performance Without Limits

Unlock maximum performance for your C7/C7.5 Audi A6/A7 with the most advanced intake system ever designed for the 3.0T Supercharged V6 engine. Precision engineered, dyno-proven and obsessively refined, CAP’s V3 intake sets a new benchmark for performance, aesthetic design and sound. Our intake tube is built from aerospace-grade titanium which delivers a lightweight yet incredibly strong design with excellent heat resistance to keep air intake temperatures (AIT’s) down. Beyond the absolute best performance available in the market, the titanium construction adds an exotic motorsport inspired look, available in both a subtle OEM+ brushed look and a more bold burnt finish.

What Sets Our Intake Apart

• Largest & Highest Flowing Filter on the Market
  Featuring a massive 7-inch performance air filter with 53% more surface area than the leading options available, this intake ensures unmatched airflow to your engine. Engineered for both size and efficiency, it’s the biggest and most effective filter ever designed for the 3.0T Supercharged V6 engine.
• World’s First Integrated Dual Methanol Bungs
  No compromises. Our intake is the first in the world to incorporate not one, but two pre-installed methanol injection bungs, giving you ultimate flexibility for cooling and fuelling strategies without aftermarket modifications or drilling. 
• Largest Velocity Stack for the 3.0T
  Equipped with the biggest and highest-flowing velocity stack in its class, the intake channels air with precision, maximizing velocity while reducing turbulence for peak performance gains.
• Supercharger Whine that puts Hellcats to shame
  This intake amplifies the supercharger’s whine, making it louder than the hellcats revving at your local car meets.
• Proprietary Filtration Technology – CAPFlowMax
  Developed exclusively for this intake, our CAPFlowMax technology balances extreme airflow with superior filtration. The result: cleaner, denser air entering your supercharged engine, delivering more power with total confidence in reliability.
