Got mine the other day. I was impressed with the attention to detail on the packaging and the product itself. Good work Eventuri crew, I can't wait to install once the horrible weather goes away.

Installed #058 this weekend!

This is really a top notch kit. The fit and finish exceeded my expectations. The Eventuri kit is leaps an bounds ahead of the GruppeM I had run. Until now, GruppeM kit had been the nicest availiable for our cars. Boths Kits sound awesome, but the Eventuri is on another level when it construction and appearance.

Way to raise the bar guys!


For the install, I ended up relocating the coolant line beneath the intake. I removed the tab and added the clip to a stock bracket location. I also notched this bracket to add a bit more clearance for the intake elbow (not needed, but I wanted the intake to point down ward a bit more to get the front alignment I was going for. It works out nicely and cleans up look even more.

Sounds great Chris. The coolant line was on my to do list as well.

You are 1 ahead of me...#059 here

Are you referring to the coolant lines connected to the secondary waterpump? Like the issue I ran into starting on post #10 of this tread => http://www.zpost.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1077573

If so, do you mind posting some pictures of your coolant line relocation "solution"? I would love to get it better aligned as well. Thanks

Looks like you need to rotate the intake elbow that attaches to the plenum clockwise to get the clearance you need. I will post pics as soon as I get a chance, most likely this evening

That's eventually what I ended up doing (rotating the elbow as much as it will go clockwise) to get the added clearance.

Very cool,
I will post pics of how I modified the bracket to lower the sensor beneath the elbow. This allows for you to rotate the elbow counter clockwise aiming straighter alignment to the intake. Let me know if that's what you're looking for.

Thanks for the feedback. Very much appreciated. I have always been a fan of GruppeM quality and am glad we have managed raised the bar.

With the favorable US Dollar, i was able to purchase the Gruppe M from oversea vendor for less than $800 shipped!
I really wanted the Evolve intake but decided to stick with the Gruppe M since i have seen and heard it in person and preferred Gruppe M's sound.
Kudo to Evolve for making parts for our cars! Next step might be the Airbox.
