Great gains! But way too expensive for just an intake.

Wouldnt expect anything less of Gruppe-M and a company like Revolution.


Looks like you have solid gains through out the dyno. Amazing how you got these numbers when it was this hot too. Would like to see how it does with similar temps and with that Revolution TB.

whats more impressive to me is the response i got from the setup. That is something that dyno's cannot measure. Not sure how much of that is the airbox and how much of that is the TB though. Having a voluminous intake box is usually important in providing response as well.

It made the car feel a lot more alive to be honest. It still isnt there though and needs some polishing up in-terms of tune.

I would get this only if it was used at a big price cut. 2000 dollars plus shipping taxes and custom fees will easily make this's couple hundred more.

I love this design though. Snorkels are a great alternative though

Thanks for the info !! The revolution intake with big throttle body , look like the best intake setup to me !!

I will be doing a before/after dyno. This intake is more about keeping the horsepower under high stress conditions (according to some Japanese reviews, every 1 degrees Celsius you lose 0.7hp), but just want to see if it actually makes any difference. stay tuned.

Bro! Any updates! I am seriously considering this, the price is down to $1500 shipped!

This is the most EPIC intake for this platform IMO! :)

I simply could not bring myself to spending that much and built one myself.

Yeah, of course. I have few installed as well. Need to get them off my phone.

Until then, here it is.

Here are couple of more pictures installed. I only installed it a month ago and very happy with it. I haven't dyno it yet.

Pretty awesome. I'm assuming that you used carbon fiber for the whole construction of the intake? (not just a top layer)

Well, because it involved a lot of cutting and changing, I used fiberglass and a top layer of carbon. At a later date, I will make a mold and build it from scratch completely out of CF (hopefully by then i will get a small autoclave)
