R2P High-Performance 4-Port Cylinder Head Cover with Manifold and Downpipe – Extreme Power for VW/Audi EA888 Gen3 Engines

This complete R2P kit includes a 4-port cylinder head cover, manifold, and downpipe designed specifically for VW/Audi EA888 Gen3 engines. Compared to the original 2-port design, this four-independent-outlet configuration eliminates the exhaust flow bottleneck, allowing the turbo to spool faster and reach much higher power levels. Ideal for competition or track-oriented builds targeting above 500 HP.

Key features

• 4 independent port configuration: overcomes the limitations of the OEM 2-port design, unlocking the engine's true potential.
• V-Band flange ready: direct compatibility with high-performance manifolds and external turbos.
• Integrated thermal insulation: protects adjacent components and maintains optimal gas temperature for greater efficiency.
• Reinforced alloy material: resistance to high temperatures and extreme pressures.
• Direct installation: designed to replace the original head without major structural modifications (requires a compatible exhaust system).

Why choose this kit over the OEM cover?

The original EA888 Gen3 cylinder head cover uses a 2-port design that works well in stock configurations but becomes a severe limiter in high-power builds. This R2P 4-port design eliminates that restriction, allowing much more efficient and rapid gas flow, essential for large turbos or hybrid configurations. In addition, the quality thermal insulation and the precision of the V-Band flanges ensure durability and consistency under extreme conditions.

Frequently asked questions

Does it include valves and springs?
No. This kit is intended for custom installations where the builder chooses the internal components according to power and use targets.

Is it necessary to modify the exhaust system?
Yes. By going from 2 to 4 ports, you need to use the manifold and downpipe included in the kit or ones compatible with this configuration.

What power level is it recommended for?
Ideal for projects aiming to exceed 500 HP or using turbos larger than the stock units.
