Eventuri air filters and air box

Post by Rusty Racer » Sun Jul 14, 2019 1:37 pm

I visited Castle Coombe yesterday and noted several B8’s with the Eventuri kit on them. Very nice engine bay bling, but a gain of 5-6hp per filter seems a minimal gain if ever there was one :roll:
Do we think it’s worth it?

It’s definitely not worth it. However if money was no object then I would have it. More gains and cheaper just getting your engine cleaned.

Thanks, that’s what I thought when someone was 75hp down :shock:

Bought for looks mainly as it does look the nuts, definitely not worth it for performance gains.

I specced the carbon engine cover on my B8 and for what that cost, that wasn't worth it and got no gains
but bought more for my own pleasure so can understand why people buy these things.
