Does anyone know if the Eventuri intake is legit?
#41
While I'm not in the market for an intake at the moment (will likely come in conjunction with a pulley/tune purchase down the road), I have to say that your offer of a money-back guarantee is exceptionally fair, if not generous. For someone to expect free product and for the vendor to trust them to fulfill their promise of dyno/test/return is, quite frankly, unreasonable.
If I was thinking about performance for my F-Type R right now, I'd be all over this deal.

Could it be possible that the car when it was stock was running rich on the air fuel ratio, and once the intake was installed it fixed the car's air fuel ratio therefore without tuning and could give you crazy gain? It happened to my friends c7 zo6 which gained 67whp with just an air intake without any tuning

Any updates? Can Eventuri talk more about the filter? Still don't know if the filter is oiled or paper, and if brake dusts were a concern during the designing of the intake. With that being said I think it's great we have more performance products and attention to our platform. Thanks for dropping by.

So I took up Eventuri's offer of a discounted intake in return for an independent review of their intake for the F-Type.
Some background about my car: I currently have the Eurotoys upper and lower pulleys installed (-1.5mm and +18mm, respectively), the VAP 200 cell sports cats, a VAP tune and (now) the Eventuri intake. The stock air filters were also cleaned prior to running the dyno tests. The dyno used was a MAHA 3000.
The power gains are definitely significant. Peak gains at the crank were 15.4 hp and 34.9 Nm (around 26 lb-ft) of torque. However, when analysing the dyno graphs, the gains were actually highest in the mid-range: around 35 more hp and 40 Nm (around 30 lb-ft) at 5,600 rpm!
Upper pulley, lower pulley, sports cats, tune:
Upper pulley, lower pulley, sports cats, tune, Eventuri intake:
The intake itself is definitely well-manufactured and it's clear Eventuri have taken pains to design, manufacture and package the product well. Unfortunately, it's a shame that all that carbon fibre is hidden well inside the bonnet!
For all those asking, there is more supercharger whine, although I have also taken off my engine cover.
Therefore, I would definitely recommend the intake for those looking for more power. It seems that you could also install it without a tune in case you're looking for more power but wish to preserve your factory warranty (nothing that was installed needed any modifications to the car and could not be reversed).

Some wise words from a smart man
Hi guys, my previous car was a BMW M5 which was upfitted with the DINAN S3 supercharged package. Here is a brief DINAN video which might help in your decesion about this product. I wish aftermarket Jaguar performance parts are R & D just like DINAN does its R & D for its products. That's why Jag remains stock.

Thanks for trying our product out SS23 - as you can see the results speak for themselves. This was tested in Dubai completely independently and by doing a before and after on the same day, the results are very accurate and fair in terms of the gains.
In terms of R&D - please have a look at our website and the product details which should show you that we put a lot of R&D into all our products - from the geometrical design and fit to CFD analysis on the airflow itself. Perhaps your concerns might be alleviated by having a read about who we are - which you can also read about on our site under the "Company" tag.
Depends on where you are based - please contact your nearest dealer - a list can be found on our site.
Someone asked about the filters we use - they are polyurethane filters which are dry and very stable under high temperature and forces. They do not soil the MAF sensors and do not warp like many aftermarket cone type filters do.

That's actually some good gains and if the price was a little better i'd jump on one. Btw ss23 those are some impressive numbers your putting down. I only have the Velocity sport cats and tune so far but i'm going to add the Eurotoys lower pulley and perhaps the Eventuri intake if someone offers a deal on one.

Hello, I got it installed by BBA in China, a vendor Eventuri recommended after I emailed them. For the intake, I can definitely feel the increase at highway speeds, less so during city driving. I dislike supercharger whine so I don't think it sounds better than before, but I don't mind it given the added performance. Do wish that eventuri added some kind of scoop to the intake nozzles like they do for other platforms, for example RS5. For similar costs their other products come with the scoops.

I'm next for the install
I bought the CAI System. I should have it i stalled by my dealer sometime this month, as the weather is getting nice so my car will come out from winter hibernation. I am in NJ.

Those intake temps and ambient air temps are really high. Guess it was a hot day.
