BMW E60 M5 / E63 M6
Performance Gain: 12-15hp, 12-18ft-lb
Some images show our Carbon Plenum available separately.
Our updated E60/E63 M5/M6 intake system retains the performance gains of our original system and benefits from the experience we have gained over the years to accomplish a more integrated design. By integrating the MAF tube into the carbon housing and replacing the OEM flexible hoses with our custom made shorter versions, the system now has a seamless aesthetic. This intake is designed to make a positive impact to the whole driving experience. By taking advantage of aerodynamic principles and using computational fluid dynamics to optimise the airflow, we have engineered an intake system which delivers on all fronts – sharpened throttle response, more torque and power, improving drive-ability and of course, an intoxicating V10 induction sound.
The Eventuri Difference
The S85 Eventuri system uses our Patent Pending Carbon fiber Housing which provides an aerodynamically efficient airflow path from the filter to the MAF tube. Not just another cone filter with a heat shield but a unique design which invokes the Venturi affect. You can read more about the housing design and how it works HERE.
Below is a dyno graph showing the comparison between the Eventuri and the stock airbox on a stock E60 M5 with stock map. The stock airbox tested is Euro spec with charcoal delete and euro filters so is less restrictive than the USA version. As you can see, power and torque are increased through a large portion of the rpm range not just at the peak. This is instantly noticeable on the road as the car feels sharper, more eager to drive even in the mid-range. The testing was done on the same day back-to-back and temperatures were monitored to ensure consistency.
Dyno testing was carried out on a Dyno Dynamics DS450 Dynamometer. For the purpose of accurate testing all tests were matched based on: - Inlet Air Temperatures through in built IAT sensor in MAF via OBDII - Ignition Timing Matched (Ignition timing can vastly change from one run to the next) - Engine Temperature (Coolant and Oil) - Exhaust Gas Temperature - Two consistent runs recorded for each of the below tests Testing Procedure: - Test 1 : Stock car, stock tune, stock intake system and euro filters (equivalent to charcoal delete) - Test 2 : As above plus Eventuri Upper Intake Scoops - Test 3 : Stock car, stock tune, Full Eventuri VAi Kit

COMPONENTS
The E6X Intake system contains a comprehensive number of high quality components including:
PATENTED FILTER HOUSINGS
The E60 M5 V2 Filter Housings utilise our patented Venturi technology and at the same time incorporates the MAF tube section for a seamless flow path. The carbon housing shrouds the reverse mounted filters and smoothly shapes the airflow towards the MAF tubes where volume is gradually reduced. This smooth reduction in cross sectional area invokes the Venturi effect where the airflow accelerates whilst maintaining laminar conditions. It can be thought of as a large velocity stack - below is a diagram to show the comparison between our patented design and a regular intake system. Further details can be read in the Technology page.
BESPOKE CONE FILTER
The filter we chose for the E60 M5 system allows for a balance between filtration area and overall filter housing volume. By using a shorter cone we were able to optimise the shape of the housing for better flow towards the MAF tubes while maintaining more than sufficient filtration area for the CFM demands. The filter medium is ISO tested to ensure that filtration is in line with OEM standards and is also dry. The filter is constructed with our signature flow cones to aid in the Venturi housing principle.
EPDM COUPLERS
By taking the housings further in length towards the plenum, we had to replace the OEM flexible hose with our own version to maintain flexibility. Our EPDM couplers are internally stepped like the OEM versions to create a smooth path between the housings and the plenum.
AIR SCOOPS
Laser cut from aluminium and then powder coated, there are 2 scoops which located behind the front nose grills and another 2 which locate in the lower brake ducts. The front scoops are curved to smoothly direct ambient air into the stock ducting which then displace heated air from the intake area. The 2 lower scoops direct ambient air directly into the mouths of the intakes.
HEAT SHIELDS
There are 2 aluminium heat shields with neoprene lining. They locate on the engine side of each intake and effectively deflect hot air from the radiator - especially when the fan comes into operation.
