Karbonius Carbon Fibre Stock S54 Plenum

A bummer if true. I miss the sound of my old CSL box, just not all the headaches that come with it.

What headaches did your setup have? Hopefully it was not the drivability/tuning cause a modern CSL tune on the MSS54HP should perform just like stock.

Honestly, the Eventuri alone is enough to scratch that itch (esp if you retain the stock muffler) and can't/don't want to deal with the software/smog/MOT aspect. Get it on sale for about $7xx-800 and be done.

Do they often go on sale for that price point? I didn’t see any during BF this year.

My friend got one in the 700 range for BF last year. I didn't see what prices were this year.

i ran an AFE intake for years, and until i recently installed an Eventuri (got one used for cheap) so i said why not. Wasn't expecting much of a difference at all.....and was totally wrong. Huge difference. I would put it right smack in the middle, between a K&N/AFE cone filter & a true CSL airbox.

Under normal driving it sounds exactly the same as stock, but under load it really has that deep throaty sound....similar to CSL.

I really want to hear a difference between this Karbonus Stock CF unit + with & without an Eventuri setup, just to hear the difference between the two.

You expect people to read? This isn't tiktok? Post 200 will be asking the same question that post 1 addresses, because maybe post 1 from like 2 days ago is outdated information. 🤷♂️🤣

You'd have to hear all three setups in person to know for sure how different they sound. The instagram video sounds slightly muted compared to the youtube videos. Could be the placement/distance from the mic and revving between 3-5k is not the best test for sound when the engine revs to 8k. Ideally, all three could be safely tested and filmed on a dyno.

Meant to hear it in person. Videos are never the same as what you see in the flesh. I watched dozens of eventuri videos before i installed mine and still sounds nothing like it does in person

Off topic but hoping to help someone out in the community. I will have an Eventuri with Bimmerworld elbow available shortly, if anyone is interested.

On topic: the CF plenum looks and sounds really impressive. Very cool to see a new product offering so late in the model cycle.

I may be interested and I'm local

Now that people have had their boxes for a longer time, how are your thoughts now? Worth it? Regrets?

I'm super happy with it! Though still curious how different it is from a full CSL intake IRL, since some CSL intake owners sound super adamant it's drastically different, while others say it's similar. No one I know around me (Madison WI) has one. If you do, I'd love to make a comparison video with some better audio equipment.
