Cobb Boost Tap — Black — 2010-2014 Volkswagen GTI Mk6
The Cobb Boost Tap for the 2010-2014 Volkswagen GTI Mk6 provides a clean, permanent port in the EA888 intake manifold or charge pipe for boost pressure sensing. The boost tap eliminates the need for T-fittings into vacuum lines — providing a dedicated, proper boost pressure port for boost gauges, boost controllers, or Accessport auxiliary sensors.
DETAILS

- Provides a dedicated boost pressure port — cleaner than T-fitting vacuum lines
- Black finish
- For boost gauge, boost controller, or auxiliary sensor connections
- All hardware included
Dedicated Boost Port vs Vacuum Line T-Fitting
The boost tap threads into a port in the charge pipe or intake manifold, creating a permanent, sealed, dedicated pressure sensing port. Using a dedicated port rather than a T-fitting in an existing vacuum line provides a more reliable and accurate boost pressure signal — the vacuum line T-fitting arrangement can affect line behavior and signal accuracy, particularly at the precise boost pressure sensing that accurate monitoring requires.
Black Finish, Installation, and Sensing Accuracy
The black finish suits the EA888 GTI engine bay and the Cobb Accessport’s black-themed accessories. Installation requires threading the tap into the correct port location with the appropriate thread size — all hardware is included. The boost tap port can be capped when not in use, making it a permanent, non-intrusive addition to the intake system.

Why Choose Cobb Tuning
Cobb Tuning has been developing performance software and hardware for turbocharged enthusiast vehicles since 1999. Founded in Austin, Texas, Cobb built its reputation on the Accessport and expanded into a full catalog of hardware engineered to complement it. Every OTS map is developed in-house on real vehicles, and every hardware product is validated as part of a complete system — not sourced and sold in isolation. That integrated approach is why Cobb produces consistent, reliable results across the builds we see every day.
The RallySport Take
The Cobb Boost Tap for the Mk6 GTI is the clean solution for owners who want a dedicated boost pressure port for accurate sensing. Whether it is for an external boost gauge, a boost controller, or a secondary sensing device, the dedicated tap provides the correct port without compromising existing vacuum line routing.
