The Ultimate Intake System for the 4.0T EA825 V8 SUV Engine
Our 4.0T EA825 V8 Intake System for SUV models offers an OEM+ appearance upgrade with an intake plenum (the air chamber prior to the engine’s cylinders) in a stunning matte forged carbon finish that enhances airflow by up to 22% compared to stock. The enhanced turbocharger inlets feature a bell mouth profile that directly connects to the factory turbocharger, promoting optimal flow and facilitating easy upgrades to future turbos. The system incorporates a proprietary performance intake filter with a high-flow cotton gauze filtration material and a flow-bench optimized design that significantly improves airflow through the system and into the intake plenum. This filter surpasses stock performance by up to 12% and reduces pressure drop at the same flow rates, alleviating the turbochargers’ strain and maximizing overall performance. Additionally, it sharpens throttle and turbocharger response, resulting in a more responsive driving experience. This intake system is the pinnacle of performance for the 4.0T EA825 V8 engine, powering SQ7, SQ8, RSQ8, Bentley Bentayga, Porsche Cayenne, and Lamborghini Urus.
Overview
The Design
The 4.0T SUV’s engine bay design is compact. The factory employs a dual inlet design that feeds into an airbox positioned beneath the intake filter cover, which then feeds into a multi-part turbocharger plenum. Airflow is directed 180 degrees into turbo inlet adapters and both turbochargers.
The intake filter underwent optimization on the flow bench to maximize airflow while utilizing a filter media that provided adequate filtration and extended filter life. Through several design revisions verified on the flow bench, we increased CFM by up to 12% over the stock unit! The overall shape and design of the filter resemble the factory unit due to its location, but it internally features several enhancements to enhance airflow beyond simply changing filter media. Next, the turbocharger plenum was upgraded. The factory plenum is small and features a flow-restricting split-body design. We eliminated this and replaced it with a large, organically shaped single-body design to promote airflow. Forged Carbon fiber was used not only for its aesthetic appeal but also because it allows for thin walls and complex geometry to maximize cross-sectional area. This aids in airflow and reduces pressure drop. The APR plenum is significantly larger than the factory unit in various areas and is a single-piece design that extends past the integrated PCV and EVAP bungs and runs all the way down to the new billet aluminum high-flow turbocharger inlets – less restriction, more airflow to the engine.
The billet aluminum turbocharger inlets feature a bell-mouth profile to promote airflow. If upgrading to larger turbochargers, the inlets can be modified or replaced to match the compressor cover on the new turbochargers. Furthermore, this system integrates PCV and EVAP bungs for a seamless installation. New EVAP jet pumps were designed and supplied for proper emission control despite all this power increase. All these improvements result in an upgrade that’s worthy of the 4.0T’s engine bay. The intake system allows the engine to breathe more freely, maximizing performance and giving a subtle but enhanced burliness to the engine note that’s sure to delight the discerning ear.

For the specific timeline on any item, check the Availability & Shipping section on that product’s own page — the guide below covers our general shipping types.
Shipping Overview
Depending on the item, free air freight may be available for select carbon fiber components, with estimated shipping around 1–2 weeks after dispatch. Larger hoods, oversized body components, and certain made-to-order items may require sea freight and longer delivery windows. If timing is important, please contact us at support@eurospeed.co before placing your order.
Shipping Coverage
EuroSpeed ships to customers across the United States and internationally. Shipping is included in the price of eligible products for your convenience and covers the initial cost of delivery to your destination.
Import duties, taxes, clearance fees, or customs charges required by your destination country are not included and remain the recipient’s responsibility.
Order Processing & Fulfillment
Every order is reviewed, processed, and prepared before shipment. Most in-stock products are processed within 1–3 business days, though some orders may take up to 5 business days depending on fulfillment location, product type, order volume, or courier pickup timing.
EuroSpeed stocks select high-demand products at our U.S. facility and international fulfillment centers. Because our catalog includes many vehicle-specific and specialty parts, not every product is held in-house at all times.
Some orders may ship through our trusted fulfillment network, which may include verified manufacturing partners, authorized distributors, regional warehouses, and international fulfillment centers.
- Orders may ship from a U.S. warehouse, international warehouse, manufacturer, or authorized fulfillment partner.
- Some products may require additional handling, processing, production, or quality-check time before shipment.
- Orders enter fulfillment shortly after being placed and may no longer be eligible for cancellation once processing, production, or shipment preparation begins.
Custom, Made-To-Order & Oversized Items
Custom, made-to-order, and oversized product categories may include carbon fiber steering wheels, hoods, trunk lids, fenders, front lips, splitters, side skirts, diffusers, bumpers, body kits, widebody components, select spoilers, rear wings, and other large carbon fiber components.
Many carbon fiber items are made to order. Some products may already be stocked and ready to dispatch when available, but if inventory is unavailable, your purchase reserves the next available production slot instead of waiting for a separate restock listing.
Production time: Production can take 1–4 weeks depending on product type, selected options, finish, current queue, and quality-control timing.
Shipping time: Shipping can take 2–10 weeks depending on item size, freight method, destination, customs processing, carrier delays, warehouse transfers, and final delivery location. Carbon fiber steering wheels typically ship faster, with shipping usually taking 3–7 business days after dispatch.
By purchasing custom, made-to-order, or oversized items, you acknowledge and accept the extended production, fulfillment, and shipping timelines associated with these products.
Tracking Updates & Delays
All orders receive a tracking number once generated by the courier. Tracking may take 2–3 business days after dispatch to show movement in the courier’s system.
Certain international, oversized, or freight shipments may show limited updates during transfer between fulfillment locations, warehouses, customs, or final-mile carriers. In some cases, tracking is provided or begins updating once the item reaches a regional warehouse, local carrier, or final delivery network.
Shipping timelines are estimates and are not guaranteed. Delays caused by high order volume, weather conditions, customs inspections, carrier disruptions, production queues, warehouse transfers, holidays, or other external factors may occur and are outside of EuroSpeed’s direct control. These delays do not qualify for cancellations or refunds unless the carrier officially marks the package as lost.
