Turner Motorsport CSL Airbox

[ATB88]

All you airbox guys should throw the man a few dollars to offset dyno time and hassle and I'm sure cub could do it . I'm ESS SC otherwise I would.

Yeah, great idea, I was actually gonna suggest we get a few of us interested to cover the cost, if he was down!

Cubieman : I dare you to back-to-back dyno your Karb box vs the TMS box when it arrives? You actually have a unique opportunity to be the first to provide data on this since you'll have both boxes until you sell your TMS. Switching between the two boxes at the dyno shouldn't take more than 20 minutes, everything's just plug and play now that you have your Karb box install done. Even though it's just on the stock CSL tune, it would be very interesting to see if they make different power...

Damn, in a spot now lol. I live in the second biggest town in Nebraska, no dyno, no Euro performance anything. There is probably one about an hour away in Omaha, also I'll bet there's definitely one in Kansas City that is about 3+ hours away.
But...I just pulled the trigger on an OE CSL trunk so I am kind of counting on the $ from the Turner box/parts to help offset that. I've been spending STUPID money on car lately. If I was I had reasonable access to a dyno and more $ I would for sure be down to test.
I'll be forever curious on the Turner claims of better flow, also people seem to be pleasantly surprised with at least the look/construction of the Turner box off hand.
I'll be curious to hear about fitment, that being said the Karb. box wasn't perfect and I had to bust out a Dremel to get the snorkel fitted as well as file down the locking tabs on the shutoff valve for a proper fit.

That’s not made by Karbonius
I know what the Instagram photos are and they are not airboxes. Nothing to do with BMWs either.

GB. I didn't get an e-mail from anyone, or anything like that. I had to ask Turner directly for it. If you just go to the product page on turner, an automated chat window will come up. Say you were part of the M3F group buy and are wondering what your shipping status is, the person on the other end might be confused at first but will eventually put someone named Sean K on the line, which is who is in charge of the GB on Turner's end. Super helpful guy, he should be able to tell you exactly where you are in line for shipping if it hasn't shipped yet. If you ordered a gloss finish box, chances are it didn't ship in the first batch, but the next batch will ship in the next 10 days or so. If you ordered matte, it may well be on its way.

You’re the man! Thank you! I have just the opposite of you with my car running rich... Every once in a while it will trip the lean codes which is weird... But that’s very rare, and it maybe throws the code for running rich once every three weeks or so. I have went through everything I can read to go through.. My plan is to just go ahead and toss her on.

I really need to do my damn rod bearings too and keep dragging my feet bc that’s the one DIY that scares me a little. Ive done most of the others..

Yeah I'm actually now looking at this as an opportunity to validate whether or not my problem is something weird and subtle/hard to diagnose in my intake setup (slightly leaky clamp/boot somewhere, bad MAF wiring, bad shutoff valve, who the f*** knows at this point because it's sure as hell not fuel or O2). Whatever it is, at this point, it's something very unusual/unlikely and far from obvious. I'm not expecting them to, but if my trims improve with the CSL intake and software I'll be doing backflips.

Ah dang, yeah I was thinking this might be an issue out where you are. But no worries, with the amount of these shipping out I'm sure we'll get some good data at some point, I'm just incredibly impatient

I watched some of their videos to do the vanos. I hope they are in fact able to dyno it and include a somewhat objective review. The installation video would be nice as well.

The Turner logo on that box makes me want to vomit.

Yeah I really, really hate it lol.

Anyone know the best way to remove mine without risking any damage to the finish? How careful to I need to be??

You might be able to hit it a little bit with a heat gun or blow drier then peel it, maybe some goo gone if there’s any residue

Fingers did the trick.. looking better already!

I found a few places online selling M Power decals. Is there an OE one, or a preferred aftermarket one that people have gotten and can vouch for? Easily the most important part of this project lol

what did you use to take it off? It should be clear coated so something like goo-off/gone may work. Or that 3m adhesive removal.

Did anyone receive the matte version yet? I may be the only one who ordered matte 🤔

This probably puts you in line to get yours quicker than most. The first shipment to Turner was 15 gloss and 10 matte but apparently many more people ordered gloss than matte.

Fingernails and patience to peel the sticker off, currently on my second goo-gone application trying to get the residue off. No way it was going in the car with that thing still on there.
