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. Most owners unaware. This went on for years.

They did quietly recently redesign filters. 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.

Thanks for the smart ass defensive comment. I don't have a dog in this fight but don't expect people to take you serious when you blast a company full on and just show pictures of a busted turbo and expect people to take what you say full value. Maybe it was the filter, maybe you are 100 percent right about their filters, but if you calling out eventuri as being shady, the least you can back it up with a little more proof than your "don't buy this product it's shit" comments
This is classifieds. Not discussion. I warned op who was looking to buy. Then everyone decided to turn it into discussion against forum rules.

I don't care if you believe or not. I've seen photos and have videos from a major tune shop.

Have confirmation from a number of places.

Notice how a dealer that was tagged by his customer didn't answer above either.

With that, I'm out.

So I reached out to IND to order new filter and inquired about these alleged turbo damages caused by Eventuri systems and older gen filter. I even forwarded the link to this thread.

Here is the response I received:
“We've never seen anything like that since we have been carrying their product for 3+ years. The Gen 2 filters were designed strictly for better airflow.”

As you have proven in other thread you cannot read what's on your screen in front of you, I would expect nothing less from you.

Enjoy your M.

I do not quite understand why you are so salty. You made claims about IND sending replacements (which seems unfounded at the moment).... and I did some research and I made my own decisions. If my shit breaks its on me! I appreciate your warning and respect your decision to not support Eventuri. But you have absolutely no right to force your opinion on others.

That said.... Im done being nice. If your sole intent is to troll or just bully everyone to side with your claims, I can tell you right now that's not happening! Just go away, brotha! Go troll elsewhere... Dickhead attitude will get you nowhere. Pricks like you don't realize you're just making a fool of yourself in here.

You were told the coverup.

Great.

I warned OP.

He can take my advice or not. And he appreciated my posts.

Warned others about EU mirrors and was lone voice during July. As others slowly found out I was correct.

I don't mind being alone. Someone has to first.

I stand by everything I said and can only laugh at responses of the coverup. I know a lot more about it than you.

I hope my posts have people doing what they never would otherwise. Taking off their turbo and examining for damage.

But pissants like you deserve to get burned.

Here's hoping for you.

Hoping doesn't make it so.

How come you are so aggressive in your responses? What did the Eventuri manufacturer do to you? Did you used to work for them and got fired?

Thinking of buying this intake early 2020 and notice that the last post in this thread was 2018 so presume there has been no more reported damage and the issue, if there was one in the first place has vanished?
