Injen evolution intake?

[jpiazzam3]

Has anyone here installed this intake. I know their claimed power numbers are probably a little far fetched. But I like the fact that it’s an enclosed air box and it retains the factory air scoops. I’m currently running the bimmerworld silicon elbow with a K&N filter but I’d like some more induction noise. Any first hand accounts would be greatly appreciated

Turner ECS marketing: "Add to that the highest dyno-proven gains" and "Utilizes our patent-pending Twist-Lock technology to securely attach a massive SuperNano-Web Dry air filter"

First Google search result: "This intake is shit. I'm going back to stock"

I have no personal experience, but I would say that is a
waste of money. I do not see how it improves the stock design at all. In my opinion, there are the CSL style boxes and the Gruppe M. Everything else is not worth it over stock. Some might argue for the Evolve, but I do not like the idea of an open intake like that. Either way, I'm sure we can all agree that the Injen is not a good idea.

Imagine exchanging US currency for something called injen and then degrading your engine bay with said item.

I'd try it out on my lawn mower first.

I see there's been little evolution in jet's opinion on the matter lol

I’ve googled reviews prior to this post. I haven’t seen the one you quoted. Link??

You should be able to tell that this is junk by how cheap it looks, the brand, how it offers nothing tangible over stock, and most of all that everyone here is telling you not to get it.

Those reviews are of the short Ram intake. Not the evolution intake. Which sucks hot air in much like the afe, K&N, even the eventuri etc. which a lot of people like.

With their sordid history of unethical dinosaur breeding practices I for one could never buy nor endorse any of their products.

Here's another thread on this intake that had about the same type of responses. I would stick with the stock intake, but hey maybe this thing does do better and the jokes on me, just don't trust their data.

I think you should get it and report your losses back.

[usdmej]

something pretty unique to the bmw community is the general perception that anything not OE-ish can't possibly be any good (and vice versa)


when CSL style intakes came on the market people were running around in droves with underdeveloped, poorly running setups telling anyone that would listen "same as a CSL bruh"

[repoman89]

I think people here just don’t like things that look like they were designed by Fisher Price … Probably the same reason nobody here likes BMW’s new M-car designs.

Most don’t mind the Eventuri or quality velocity stacks for example

I’ll just get a 4k$ csl intake that makes 15hp then.

Snide comments go better when they're accurate. They're $1,500-2k, & the main reason to get a CSL replica box is for sound, not the 15hp.

If you're balking at $2k for the greatest induction of any car you'll see on the road, then I've got some bad news for you...
