Thanks! It's a clean install indeed. I tried getting decent video but as always is difficult to catch good sound. In person you can hear it loud and clear even over my exhaust setup.

https://www.eventuri.net/products/bmw-f8x-m3m4/ These are "open" sure the elements are shrouded but they still suck in hot air unlike the OEM or Turner setup above. The M2 one does seem to be sealed. I was talking S55. https://www.eventuri.net/products/bmw-m2-m235i-m135i/ EDIT: I assumed (wrongly) that the M2C used the F8X setup. This is wrong and they are enclosed please ignore the above comment. The tuner only told me about the F8X setup no clue on the M2C setup power wise. https://www.eventuri.net/products/bm...2-competition/ If OEM is good for 800WHP then id personally rather spend the money elsewhere. |

Looks very promising!!
A couple questions: I was looking through the installation manual and looks like the airbox covers don't actually screw in anywhere and slide into place. Do they stay on pretty solid? And how is the quality of the carbon pieces and fitment overall? Thanks!

I can second that, the induction sounds is much more noticeable so I am constantly on the throttle to hear it.

They rightfully deserve the publicity for what looks like a great product but the branding is way off. Carbon Intakes are 50% eye-candy. A simple thing like a logo can ruin or misrepresent the product. |

The black and silver one is subtle enough to not be eye piercing. And the one on the heat shield is hidden under the cover. DINAN ones have it written all over the boxes and the D logo on the intake tube and I still think they also look good.

Turner Motorsports business model makes it somewhat the Wall Mart of BMW components. Name itself is also a bit generic. Dinan has the legacy, Eventuri has the luxury image. Turner Motorsports? Eh, generic reliable brand. I just think a sub brand, acronym or just a good alternative logo would do the intake more justice. |

When I was running DINAN parts lots of people were hating on them because they had been sold to APR and Steve had moved to another company. Others blasted them because of the poor gains their tunes had, regardless their products to me were solid. So I see you mention legacy about them but not everyone shares your view of them. I do like Dinan parts and run their turbo on my daily driver. Turner has been in the racing business for years, I have seen them multiple times at the IMSA races and they are not a company that started last year so not sure where the Walmart comparison comes from, but like I said everyone will have their own opinions. I am happy with carrying their brand logo same way their spacers I ran had them. Same goes with all other parts on my build from VRSF and Active Autowerke which their Downpipes and exhaust have their logos on them |

I'm not American so I only know so much. Dinan has had a strong presence on most cars that I've owned, so I probably have a huge bias. I only know Turner Motorsport from when I outsource rare/out of production parts. It's a great shop, don't get me wrong. Just not a brand name I'd like to be plastered at the center of the engine bay, that's all |

Was my first question! If it matched the carbon brace!

I just wanted to let you guys know I just had a shockingly terrible experience with Turner's chat rep. I contacted them to let them know my tax rate was calculating incorrectly and gave them my 9 digit zip code. I live outside the city limits and my 5 digit zip has multiple tax rates in it. Rep dropped a screenshot of the 5 digit zip and said my tax rate is double what it is and then disconnected. I could not believe that.
While the person may not represent everyone at Turner, it is the person they are paying to represent them to their customers. I will be saving my $1000 and going with a different intake in the future. |

Tried getting some audio of the Turner Motorsport Intakes but the exhaust is overpowering. Had some fun trying though!

i noticed that you're running stock dme (no tune)... since you have catless dp wouldn't that mean your car always has the CEL on? is it just annoying with the light on or does it affect the car (reliability/performance)? |
