VAG 2.0T (and other GDI's) Intake Port Plug

thingiverse

I've actually been using this solution for a while now, but never got around to sharing it with the community. This is a plug designed to securely seal off intake ports on most inline and V direct injection VAG (VW/Audi) engines, including the 2.0T. These engines are notorious for getting clogged up with oil and combustion byproducts, requiring periodic cleaning with soda/walnut blasting, precision picks, and plenty of patience. In the past, I used packing tape to cover ports that weren't in use (and potentially had open valves you'd rather not drop anything into), but this was a real hassle and wasted time. That's why I created this plug to be printed with flexible filament; I opted for semiflex due to its rigidity, durability, and my long bowden drive setup. Personal sizing may vary slightly, as seen in the design at 102% scale for a secure fit.
