Sport Intake Camshaft GT – Volkswagen 2.0 16V DOHC (22280)

Improve the performance of your Volkswagen 2.0 16V DOHC engine with a GT-type sport intake camshaft designed to support better cylinder filling, improved airflow, and a more responsive engine character. This camshaft is intended for performance-oriented 16V builds where optimized valve timing and hydraulic valve clearance compensation are required.

Thanks to increased cam lift and extended valve opening duration compared to the factory specification, the camshaft supports more efficient intake flow and improved engine breathing. It helps sharpen throttle response, increase performance potential, and deliver a sportier driving character across the RPM range.
