I'm in the middle of install but had to jump on a zoom work meeting lol.

95% done and only took me maybe 30 mins - Initial thoughts - super high quality kit. packaged perfectly and this is as good as any intake can get. Fitment is 100% spot on

One quick tip for the install. Add a tiny bit of lube around the rubber gasket that the two cone filter assembly slips into the Eventuri base structure. It helps it goes in smoothly without kinking anywhere. I just put a little bit of tire gloss my finger and ran it around the gasket.

I've heard Vaseline will do the job.

Looking forward for your pictures.

That looks fantastic! It’s noticeably more audible than stock?

It’s night and day difference compared to stock which has zero intake noise. It’s a whole new driving experience now because you have this other soundtrack to listen to besides my Dinan Midpipe mated to the Akrapovic exhaust. Sound wise it’s perfection now.

I had the eventuri on my old F97 for a couple of months. While it looked nice, it didn’t make a noticeable difference at all in sound. It was essentially a very nice looking engine cover.

This one looks really nice though and I love hearing that turbo spool 😁

LMK, I have few more sets that I can allocate to you.

It is better than X3M, since X3M setup is just a drop-in with CF cover.
Hence, you don’t see me pushing it like this one or the F9x M5/M8 setup.

Maybe you can slip one of these in the box with the brake pads? 😁

That’s unfortunate 😢

In all seriousness though, this is a super nice looking kit.

Just finished install the Eventuri kit and it’s amazing. The induction sounds is so addicting.

Here is a quick video I made. Just normal cursing and you can hear air vent out the rear ducts loud and clear. Sorry my Akra exhaust kinda drowns out the noise a little bit.

This is taken with all the windows closed

None posted last I checked but it really isn't needed. Effectively there are 4 bolts you need to install and thats it.

Ben's post is really all you need and the only thing i'll add is to put some lube around the rubber gaskets where you wedge the cone filters into the base. I spent more time trying to fit that in there without the gasket folding over on the driver side. Also remember to reuse the rubber grommets from the stock air box/engine cover to secure the new CF engine cover and be really delicate with the ///M badge you have to swap over. Those tabs will break off after a certain point.
