So this is awesome.
TLDR - EVENTURI directions incomplete / wrong - I did get it installed after much pain
Longer summary desired, but I still don't want to read all this nonsense and figure out how it ended. Ranting is encouraged-
######EVENTURI DIRECTIONS ARE TERRIBLE, MISS COMPLETE SECTIONS OF THE INSTALL, AND REFERENCE PICTURES ARE FROM ANOTHER INTAKE - SO I HAVE THE INTAKE ON BUT EVENTURI CAN BITE ME AND I WON'T BE GETTING ANY OF THEIR GEAR GOING FORWARD FOR MY TYPE R, RS3 OR ANY OTHER CAR I EVER OWN. SOUNDS GREAT, LOOKS GREAT, BUT THE INSTALLATION SHOULDN'T BE THIS DIFFICULT AND INCORRECT FOR A THOUSAND+ DOLLAR PART##########
Original thread -
Wife encouraged me to splurge, treat yourself, you've had a banner year! So I go ahead and get something I would never get, as it's pure excess. An Eventuri air intake. Figure - this thing should be CAKE to install!
And some elements are / were.
What is just incredible for a $1400 part is they didn't drill the F**(&ng holes for the MAF in the CARBON fiber intake tube.
Yes, you read that right.
So now I am just kind of screwed as my car is disabled at my buddies house and it's not like I can get a replacement intake tube from Eventuri in any reasonable time.
So it's - fix your 1400 dollar intake before you put it in - time.
I need to drill - tap the bolt holes for a stock MAF in this POS -
Does ANYONE know the proper die / tap to use for the factory MAF screws? If I get that done myself through some miracle, I can put the stupid thing on and listen to the woosh woosh while still being pissed off.
But woosh woosh right?
Help if you can! LOL
