Vorsprung Water Accelerator "VWA-50"
Meet the Vorsprung Water Accelerator: Cooling Without the "Audi Tax"

Water Accelerator VWA-50 FAQ
Is this a direct replacement for the OEM pump?
Yes. It's a plug-and-play replacement for Audi/VAG part number 8K0965567B, using the factory connectors and standard Pierburg cushion clamps and mounting locations.
How is this different from the VWA-100?
The VWA-50 matches the Pierburg CWA-50 and serves the 4.0T V8 platform (A7/S7, A8/S8, S6). The VWA-100 matches the Pierburg CWA-100 and serves the 3.0T V6 platform. They're not interchangeable.
Can I run two of these in series or parallel?
Yes, that's a common use case for shoppers building a custom cooling circuit for extra flow, or pairing it with a CWA-100/VWA-100 pump to fight head pressure in a higher-demand setup.
Does this include a warranty?
Yes, it's backed by a 2-year warranty.
Do I need to splice or solder anything to install this?
No. It's tailored for the factory Audi vehicle connectors, so it's plug and play.
