The example was given just showing an independent dyno graph but I don't believe any other intake on that platform has been proven to make 19 WHP. That is not easy at all.

Why don't you email IND directly?

The pricing is also listed on their website.

The lead designer has a degree in fluid dynamics and these principles are taken into account throughout.

The full development thread is now up here:

I'm with you on the intakes tho. I would be an Eventuri if we find out they make good power. I wish the red which I would want wasn't $750 more. Not sure why it's so much more seems excessive.

The Carbon/Kevlar hybrid material which is used to provide colour is more expensive and is harder to work with to get a smooth finish.

The holes, non-custom offset/sizing and finish options on the FI-R make them way less attractive IMO. But to each their own right.

Now back to intakes... I need to decide if Im keeping my car or getting a GTR so I can decide if I'm buying one of these or not

GTR ones are in development too

How does the Eventuri compare to the BMS CAI in terms of sound?

Just needed to correct that for you.

But seriously, I would love to hear some SOUND clips of the Eventuri drive by.

No one is arguing with you there. However when the hood is closed, the MSR looks cool. You can see the filters out the front with hood closed. It also makes very cool sounds.

But with hood up, Eventuri wins hands down in the eye candy factor for sure.

A lot of people call it CAI? So does the BMS site. Does it matter if it's Hot or Cold?

Its a joke......meaning its a HOT Air intake. It sucks in HOT air from the engine.

Thats why it makes no power. Because it is a Hot Air intake and not like the Eventuri or MSR which bring in Cold air.

They can call it whatever they want, but the facts are, it draws on Hot air.

It only matters to performance.

I see but the tested performance gain are from the dyno fans producing 100mph winds. How accurate is that in real world scenario? Seems like that these intakes will provide the performance gain at high speed. Other than that it does look sexy as hell tho.

Please clarify as I'm Trying to ascertain the benefits and if it's worth investing

Eventuri has an open cone with carbon wrapped around the outside

when your at a stand still it also draws in hot air

It draws air in through funnel from the front grill - has a scoop like an rpi air ram and apparently is more efficient

How is this a true cold air intake?

Seems no different to any other open cone with an air ram?

Eventuri looks the best of all the systems and I believe their power gains claims, however since the MSR makes more noise it's a tough call

It's also $800 for the MSR intake.

OH... Well then yea MSR lol. Are there any Dynos charts or hp claims for their intake?

I thought the msr was 2500 dollars

I think he meant $800 More for the MSR. But I believe George gives a 20% discount to board members. So there isn't too much in price difference.

You don't need power parked at the lights.

As soon as you start moving, the ram flow will kick in.

I would think that the extra air coming in when moving would make the under hood temps slightly lower anyway.

But worst case scenario, you momentarily have the same as the HAI whilst stopped for prolonged periods of time, but as soon as you move, the temps would be down again.


To tell you the truth, I am still undecided as well.

I think the MSR will perform better, and possibly sound better. But the Eventuri, looks better.

I really need to hear an Eventuri.

Cheers.

If you do hear one in person or end up hearing one. Let me know, I'm interested. It's undeniably gorgeous.

Apparently someone in Miami just changed his AWE CAI to the MSR on his F80 M3, and his wife has the Eventuri on her F80 M3.

If that person is on the board, C'MON man let us know which sounds the best and which performs the best.

PM me please if you don't want to be public.
