How to Install the Integrated Engineering Short Runner Intake Manifold on the VW 2.5 Engine - 07K

This is a step by step walkthrough for installing the short runner intake manifold on the VW 07k engine from Integrated Engineering. This is the first step in taking the 2.5 to stage 2. The next step is to flash the stage 2 tune onto the ECU. Installing the intake manifold might seem like a lot of work, but it is really not that bad when you get into it. The biggest pain is the bolt under runner 3. Patience is key! Stage 2 is so much fun on this 2010 Volkswagen Jetta SE!

Did you buy the Power Kit? If not, what intake are you running with this manifold?

[@KMFDM781]

I made my own using exhaust pipe and generic intake tube pipe and parts from Autozone. I had my filter in the fender.

[@miguelsalazarjr4712]

Hi so basically I have a 2012 Jetta 2.5 and I want to be able to do the stage 2 IE tune but I need the manifold and what not but it says the car needs power steering. Do I really need power steering? and could I still do it if I don’t have it

[@VoyageRC]

@@miguelsalazarjr4712 the vehicle needs to be ELECTRIC power steering and not HYDRAULIC power steering. The pump for the hydraulic system will cause clearance issues with the IE manifold. If you are electric PS then you are good to go.

[@miguelsalazarjr4712]

@@VoyageRC ok and how would Ik of my car has EPS!?

[@VoyageRC]

@@miguelsalazarjr4712 Hydraulic would have a pump that is run by the serpentine belt sitting up top by the stock intake manifold on the passenger side of the vehicle. No pump = EPS

[@jairor1337]

Thank God I watched this before just buying the manifold, I also have the vacuum delete kit that you have. Would've not know what to do! Where did you get your attachment and what sizes did you use to get it all to fit? I have a my long cold air intake that cost$350 and wouldn't want to have it go to waste.

[@VoyageRC]

Check out “THE ADAPTER” in the description. Thats what I used to connect the vacuum pump delete to the manifold.

[@El_Nandiba_Mosongo]

Nice 👌

[@VoyageRC]

🙏🏻

[@myspacenrg]

after doing this for years, the best approach i've found for the 3rd runner bolt is to position yourself over the passenger fender, standing perpendicular to the motor. drop you right arm under the intake manifold and with your left hand, hand off the bolt to your right hand. seat the bolt, then with a small allen key, take your time and tighten to spec. After a good heat cycle, go back and tighten all the mounting bolts, as they have a tendency to walk themselves out from time to time.

[@VoyageRC]

Great tip. Thank you.

[@myspacenrg]

@@VoyageRC prolly best to lay a towel on the plastic of the radiator support. key thing is to relax and breathe. its such a compromising position that you feel youre going to snap your arm if you sneeze wrong. but with enough practice, you'd be amazed how fast you can pop on/off the whole setup. with regards to the breather hose for the brake booster, you can run an NPT fitting to off of one of the intake bungs and create a new line to the brake booster. i bought a second brake booster hose purely for the booster tip, and fashioned my own OEM looking hose from black braided hose. I have it on IG under the same username

[@VoyageRC]

@@myspacenrg I have the IE intake on now so all that is finished up the proper way. Lol

Thinker

[@AbsoluteRecoil]

For someone who never worked on cars but is mechanically inclined, (rebuilt carb on a Suzuki 250) would you recommend I do this myself? I have the IE manifold + IE CAI coming next month as well as the IE valve cover, IE Vacuum pump block off plate, and IE block breather adapter. Will be going on my 2.5 manual 2013 golf. Also would you recommend doing anything else to the car while I’m doing these upgrades?

[@VoyageRC]

The install isnt to difficult of a job. There are just a few steps that are more difficult than the rest. I talk about them in the video. Thats a good list of upgrades. It might be worth looking into a catch can since you are doing the valve cover.

[@kirisutokyoto69]

Which tube is taking the breather filter? The bigger one or the smaller one that’s usually right next to it

[@VoyageRC]

I put the filter on the tube coming from the oil filter housing. Should be the smaller tube.

[@vicchavez6570]

Did you upgrade your fuel pump with a pressure regulator? And for the rpm reving down too slow get a blow off valve .

[@VoyageRC]

No fuel pump upgrade needed. This is a naturally aspirated engine. Blow off valve makes no sense.

[@wilarsuki]

Do you really feel it's pushing harder and worth it?! Yes on the crank the manifold gives 40+hp but to the wheels and driving i wonder if it's a slight increase or completely a different car 😏 for me in canada the intake itself with the tune would cost around 1400.......

That bolt under the runner sucks!! Good video mate.

[@VoyageRC]

That bolt is the worst! Haha Thank you.

[@Lovely_planet]

curious should that gasket be at all visible when sealing the throttle body to the manifold?

[@VoyageRC]

Nope. Just make sure it is seated properly.

[@KamionKing]

The big hole on the bottom came plugged up on yours, mine came without a plug. Do you have any idea why or if thats a defect?

[@VoyageRC]

My car does not have secondary air injection. I have a lot less piping running around.

[@KamionKing]

@@VoyageRC Ah I see. Thanks for the quick reply.

[@VoyageRC]

@@KamionKing 👍🏻

[@JimmyBreedlove]

Super stoked to pick this up soon, but my 2008 Rabbit doesn’t have a MAP sensor, has a MAF instead. Does the IE manifold come with a block off plate for where the MAP would go? That’s my only concern.

[@VoyageRC]

No plate included. Not sure if there is something on your stock manifold that you transfer over. You have MAF only? No MAP?

[@JimmyBreedlove]

@@VoyageRC Would you look at that… I just peeked under my hood an I have a maf AND map sensor… 😳 I guess no problem after all! LOL

[@VoyageRC]

@@JimmyBreedlove haha yay! I was going to say, it would be really weird to not have a MAP sensor.

[@jorgeahernandez9529]

Great video If I install this. do I have to do stage 2 ? Or can I still Run it as it is ?

[@VoyageRC]

You would probably run worse without the tune. I have never tried it with the factory or stage 1 tunes. It is designed for the stage 2 tune. 🤷🏼‍♂️

so do you have electric power steering or hydraulic power steering?

Electric. This manifold will not fit with hydraulic.

Hello, in which page or place can I buy that intake manifold aluminum?

They dont make it in aluminum. It is cast. I ordered mine directly from IE. You might need to email them if you just need the manifold and not the power kit.

For the intake how were you able to tell if your car was hydraulic steering or electric. I got a Mk6 2013 SE 2.5 I5 and can’t tell at all. I’m new to the all the tunning/modding stuff and trying to learn.

[@VoyageRC]

You will have a fluid reservoir up near the battery for hydraulic. Your 2013 will be hydraulic. They did away with the electric after the Mk5.

@@JoaoFerreira-ov2ey you would have to relocate the reservoir. I am unsure if the manifold would clear the pump though. It might have to be modified.

If I have a really short cold air intake can I just buy the manifold

The manifold will work with some other intakes 👍🏻 You will need to tune it also.

Yes. This wont work with hydraulic power steering. The equipment is in the way.

why didnt you just cut the injen intake to shorten it?? my question

I didn’t feel like hacking it up. I opted to let someone else get some use out of it. Also, the bend is in a weird spot to just make a cut and call it good.

So does my wife’s. 😩

[@ohyeahyeah4312]

So does mine. I found a solution however it will require a bit of elbow grease. I am planning on removing my factory power steering pump and replacing it with a volvo electric power steering pump (600 new, ≈150 used). It uses 80 amps so you can use a stock alternator on it (I’m planning on upgrading later however). You can then use the golfs accessory belt, and put the pump in a remote location (I plan on putting it where the cold air intake would go in the fender since I have a SRI). This would allow you to keep the hydro-power steering but free up the space for the manifold.
