CSL Airbox: Streamline vs. Karbonius?

[VisorM3]

Yeah I want Karbonius this summer or next!
Very informative thread

I just msg Streamline and they are replacing all the airboxes from that batch. I should be getting my replacement mid Feb. Let see how that goes.

Same thing they said to me. Due to the delays etc, I'll be requesting they post the new airbox to me first before I send my existing one back.

Just the fact that they had to change their name form Streamline to Haimus Racing should be warning enough...companies often change names when they run into trouble & get a bad rep.

Idk... aside from the massive M3F hype that Streamline received (from Leighton.. funny how that also turned out), all they had going for them was price. With Turner now in the mix, you’d have to be living under a rock to ever consider Streamline/Haimus for anything.. Especially given the many documented cases of failure/ill fitment, and the owner being an assclown. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

turner has had problems... big ones... thin material, broken fittings with 2 revamps.. thats why they pulled it off the market for a few months... not sure if they are back to selling them... ive seen the pics of Turners failed boxes

I don't doubt it. Difference here is that I bet these owners will have recourse through Turner.

Or, you could just do it right the first time and get Karb (or OEM) - in the first instance a few hundred dollars is worth the peace of mind.
Overall, I'm happy there are more options for these cars. I'm sure Turner will iron out the kinks like other manufacturers have done over the years.

It sucks being Turner's guinea pigs though. I'm glad they might end up with a product I'd consider installing, but man you would think they'd figure that out before they sell it to the public at all... crazy.

Agreed. It's like they didn't even bother testing their product. How did they not notice the fitment issues with the cabin air filter housing and strut bar after the first test fit?
