BAR-TEK® 2.5 TFSI EA855 Sport Valve Spring Kit
Original BAR-TEK® Sport valve spring kit for 2.5L TFSI engines, as found in Audi TT RS and Audi RS3 models.
A high-quality solution for tuning enthusiasts: The BAR-TEK® Sport valve spring kit is made from hardened special steel and equipped with titanium spring retainers. The kit is suitable for all 2.5L TFSI engines (EA855 / EA855 evo) used in models such as Audi RS3 and TT RS.
Performance and Benefits
These valve springs feature an optimized spring rate, which improves engine response and reaction time. The titanium spring retainers lighten the valvetrain, allowing for higher boost pressure and increased RPMs without reliability issues.
- Improved and faster engine response
- Allows for higher RPMs
- Lighter valvetrain due to titanium retainers
- Excellent stability at high RPMs
- Suitable for higher boost pressures
When to upgrade to sport valve springs?
When increasing engine boost pressure or installing tuning camshafts (e.g., SCHRICK), the original valve springs are often no longer sufficient. This can result in:
- Inadequate valve closure
- Spring breakage
- Severe engine damage
BAR-TEK® sport valve springs eliminate these risks and ensure reliable operation in tuned engines.
Design and Technology
The valve springs are made from heat-treated special steel, which provides high strength and durability. Additionally:
- Special coating increases wear resistance
- Greater material thickness compared to standard springs
-
Oval shape allows for greater valve lift
-
Conical design reduces mass and improves operation
The optimized design prevents spring coil bind and ensures correct pre-tensioning in all situations. The result is a smoother-running engine and controlled boost pressure.
