For last time, all the Eventuri BMW M cars (as well as B58 Engines and many non BMWs) use the same filter. The filter didn’t work worth a shit. Damage to many, many turbos. Brand of turbo doesn’t matter. Most owners unaware. This went on for years.

They released a redesigned filter (without being honest as to why) about 5 months ago.

Do you trust them enough to buy one now? Especially a used one that might have been sand blasted? Better you than me.

At least a few Dealers had the ethics to send out replacements filters to their Original Buyer (without telling them exactly why they should replace). Wonder how many thought, “I’ll just keep the spare until I need it.” smh.

End of Story.
