Would be great to see more tuning adjustments made for Eventuri or high flow inlets, instead of just some "whiz-bang" sounds on decel.

The Evolve results, from my perspective, sound too good to be true..... but I don't see Evolve are the type of company to bullshit.

Backed up comparisons by customers though, will certainly help to provide us context.

We’re developing a new S58 intake for the G80/G82/G87 that includes larger turbo inlets and these inlets will only fit our intake due to their increased size. This setup is designed for maximum airflow, better response, and improved efficiency, especially for tuned or hybrid turbo cars.

Right now, the only company offering an intake + oversized inlet combo is DO88, and theirs is carbon fiber (and pricey). We’re offering a similar concept in aluminum to keep costs down while delivering the same performance benefits.



I also have a set of oem fitting upgraded inlets if anyone wants to test for us please reach out.

FTP has inlets and tubing that connects to the stock airboxes...which i have and have been pretty happy with...the inlets have more impact then the intake alone in my opinion, they are just a PIA to install

That's why we plan to release two options. Inlets similar to the ftp and inlets that work with a full intake system so there is no size reduction on the intake side.

Something for everyone.

Thank you for not making everything in carbon! Drives me crazy when companies only offer a carbon option that needlessly drives the cost up 2-3x.

Interested to see what this new system you’re cooking up is.

Mishimoto provides an oversized inlet with their intakes. However, they only added the passenger side turbo inlet, as their bench flow tests shows negligible difference on the front side turbo.

Yeah - I run them. If you watch the video from them, the passenger side is increased (flow) like 20% and driver's is 10% (or so). Makes you wonder if they'd redesigned the drivers side inlet, it'd been more. I like the Mishi inlet for those of us that cannot afford the 3k eventuri...

I just installed your under hood intake and I am wanting to try inlets. I'm in Texas if you're interested in me testing them. I am Femto unlocked, tuned by Bend/XHP, MAD intake, Catless DPs, full Ti Exhaust.

Interesting that the Do88 kit has a rear/passenger side inlet that looks similar to the mishi one.

does someone have dynos with stock car vs turbo inlet upgrades? would be really interesting...

i dont think i have seen third party dynos with only the inlet as the difference.

A direct comparison won't show anything imo. If anything, you'll need to adjust the map to make use of any lower wastegate duty.

I'm now going hybrid turbos, so will be fitting the MMX inlets as part of that, as advised by my tuner.

[wax50]

Just ordered from x-ph.com

Will see how they work with front mount intakes and catless downpipes.

This isn’t really a mod you do for more power, it’s an efficiency and response mod to basically allow the turbos to work a little less to pull in the same amount of air or more through the intakes. It’s done to lessen pumping losses, which in turn will get you more performance. This is one reason why a couple of aftermarket intakes encompass these already as part of their system, because there’s some restriction in the stock pieces.

I personally would still like to see a stock car vs a stock car with just these inlets. Logs, Dyno runs, street driving. For the longest time the general consensus was the OEM intake was actually really good and upgrading was mainly for looks or noise.

I don’t doubt this might reduce WGDC or let the turbo spool up a tiny bit quicker, but is any of this a measurable/meaningful amount? I suspect not, and unless you’re out their chasing tenths of a second this isn’t going to be a noticeable mod.

This platform is strange in that there is very little data by the aftermarket companies for parts they put out. I’m used to companies including actual dyno graphs or flow charts for parts(heavily biased info I’m sure but still it’s something), not just this whole “it does stuff, trust is bro” way of marketing.

i agree and thats why i asked tbh.. i would also love to see these inlets in combo also with mst one sided intake+air scoops on stock or m2cs flashed cars. Im asking for much now

The DME limits power in stock form...most modern cars actually do this. The OEM calibration allows a max amount of torque/hp and will limit timing, throttle, wastegate duty etc to keep power below the threshold. So even if these add power, which they do when tuned and turning up the boost, they are mostly useless on a stock tune. The only advantage is if you have aftermarket intakes for the sound, these inlets will give you a louder bypass valve "woosh" sound over the stock inlets.


Now tuned, without the DME limiting the power, these inlets reduce WGDC. Pair it with downpipes, mid, intake....they all reduce the work the turbo has to do. This will result in more power and a faster car than tuned cars without these mods. Simply because you need less exhaust to go through the turbines to reach boost levels which results in a less restrictive path for the exhaust to exit.
