AMS Performance VW/Audi Turbo Charge Pipe
The AMS Charge Pipe features a one-piece design that allows for smooth, large-radius bends. The inlet is 85% larger than the stock unit, and the outlet is approximately 10% larger, eliminating bottlenecks in charge air flow. This is a complete bolt-on kit with fitment identical to the factory piece, requiring no cutting or modification. The AMS Charge Pipe is perfectly suited for use with the AMS Golf R front-mount intercooler and any future AMS turbo upgrades.

Reference Materials
Before Ordering
〇 Regarding Import Consumption Tax
At Shaftoya, we pay the import consumption tax incurred during customs clearance on your behalf. Therefore, you will not be charged any additional fees beyond the total amount paid at checkout.
〇 Checking Compatibility
Our entire product database is based on North American specification (USDM) vehicles. Please verify compatibility with your Japanese specification (JDM) vehicle before placing an order. (If you are unsure whether a listed product is compatible with your vehicle, please feel free to contact us. Our support team will be happy to investigate for you.)
If you place an order without confirming compatibility, we cannot accept returns due to incompatibility.
Please note that even if products are sorted by year, manufacturer, and model using the tabs on our homepage, this does not guarantee that they will fit Japanese model vehicles without modification.
All product descriptions are translated into Japanese using translation software. Due to the possibility of confusing phrasing, please contact us if you have any questions before placing your order.
○ Regarding Shipping
Shipping costs are paid at the time of checkout. Shipping estimates are calculated automatically once you enter your shipping address on the checkout page. For large items such as body parts, the actual shipping cost may differ significantly from the automatic calculation in rare cases. In such instances, we will contact you individually via email.
In principle, all products are shipped internationally from our US warehouse. Unlike domestic Japanese shipping, international delivery takes approximately 7 to 14 days, so please allow sufficient time for your order. If you are in a hurry, please contact us to check lead times beforehand. Note that all items are transported via air freight; we do not use sea freight.
○ Regarding Japanese Vehicle Inspection (Shaken) Compatibility
All products we handle are designed and manufactured outside of Japan. Please be aware that they are not compliant with "Japanese Vehicle Inspection (Shaken)" standards, and we are unable to provide strength calculation documents or other certifications for this purpose. Therefore, all parts are sold for use on "circuits, private property, or off-road," and installation and usage are at your own risk.
○ Regarding Warranty
Please inspect the contents immediately upon arrival. As all items are shipped internationally from outside Japan, there is a possibility of shipping damage to the packaging or the product. We will only provide returns, refunds, or replacements for shipping damage, defective products, or incorrect items if you contact us within 7 days of receipt. Please understand that for products sold through us, warranty-related support is provided "exclusively through us." We do not provide support through other companies or distributors located within Japan.
