- In our last video you saw that our F56 Mini Cooper S had an Eventuri Intake System fitted, this was in prep for the car to go to Essen Motor Show and be displayed on the Eventuri stand.
In this video we take a closer look at the intake system, show you the install process, and then get the car out on the road to see how the car feels, along with discussing performance data.

#Mini #F56 #Eventuri - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Have you guys heard of the kit causing an increase to the fuel range? After the initial install, I fueled up & my fuel range increased from 350 mls per tank to over 415 mls per tank.
Best investment I've made so far in my F56. So glad you guys were able to roll out number 550 five weeks earlier than the original back order date to ship.
We haven’t heard of or experienced it but I guess with less restriction it could be possible?
We will pass the feedback on to Eventuri ✌🏻
Absolutely Love the turbo noises mate. They truly are my favourite . Cheers
Don’t you think its a bit exaggerating?
@@gkou8668 the noises are weird to me
@@chrisjfox8715 it’s a common noise if you been around turbo cars so not really
@@fuhjrvr7474 yes really they are weird TO ME. I haven't spent any time around turbo cars.
Wonderful to see you on the tools
OK, That is the nicest looking cold air intake kit I've ever seen. I can tell lots of thought went into the design... and the air scoop actually works...
Now I have to save the pennies for one... I've found a North American distributor!
Really enjoy your videos keep them coming.
Thanks!
Awesome carbon engineering! Love from South Africa 👍🏼😎🇿🇦
Eventuri FTW. And thanks 😊
👍🏼💯
Chiming in from Chicago, loving all your videos on Tobi and along with that going to continue to keep watching all your updates. Would love to know if there is any update on an intercooler upgrade or development update! Wish you guys had another shop here!
Good to hear you love the wavetrac. That's 10000% something I need when I get my Mini.
Always baffled that the JCW didn't come with one, at least.
The turbo flutter is so nice ! I just got mine !
So would you say this intake would give you the most performance out of all the intakes, obviously intakes don’t do much other then sound but from what I’ve seen eventuri make the most power on other cars.
Even the boss gets his hands dirty sounds brilliant
Hi. Love this kit. Beautifully made. Could you tell me what the gains are on a stock pre LCI JCW please? The graph on your website only gives figures on a car with a stage 2 tune.
very informative/transparent, as a potential prospect client i feel very comfortable with leaving any car with u #valuecreation
Looking good dude! Keep it up! 👍🏿👍🏿🇬🇧🇬🇧
Cheers 🙏
Nice piece of kit
I can tell someone was having waaayyy too much fun
Lovely finish to the kit but does water find its way into the intake when driving in rain/washing etc?
Sounds awesome
Love the interior growling noise.
I hope there will be an Eventuri-Kit for the Fiesta ST mk8 too!
Plus the dyno runs, you should always test the car on the dyno I.e. Change air intake on the ramp for fair comparisons
Way to expensive for me but would love to have one
Is it required/necessary to do tuning after installing this intake system?
Man I want one of those but my wife would kill me if I spent $1500 on the intake 😅
Edit: I finally bought it. So my days are numbered 😅
was it worth it?
Would this fit on a 2015 F55? Would I need to retune the Mini after installation?
They are such a good looking and sounding intake I wish you made a kit for my car
What year is this ??? I'm looking to buy one as a Daily driver while I project my n54
Is there some foil on the headlights? They seem darker...
I love me some functional bonnet scoops
As far as the air filter itself what is needed or how does one replace it and can one use any filter
Hello, I am considering this. But I'd love to know how it deals with rain. Wont a downpour flood the air intake through the scoop?
No, there are multiple design elements to prevent water ingress. You can find more info on the product page of Eventuri’s website.
I know your second gen filter is iso tested.Was the first gen iso tested?
What tune does this works with on a JCW with high flow catted downpipe and JCW works exhaust system? As I didn't get a respond from evolve R
JCW has a bigger turbo. We have a tune for the JCW
What causes that fluttery noise with the intake? I assume things are just more audible but does the design via the hood scoop change the dynamics resulting in the fluttering sound? What does it signify?
That’s a the blowoff valve from the turbo, purely being more audible and not directly related to the box. It’s a normal piece of kit on a turbocharged engine: a way out for excess air (which is why you hear it so much on the downturn of the rev: the turbo is still spinning, but the engine is asking for less combustion, ergo less air and fuel)
@evolve is that a dump valve making the flutter noise? If so, are these available for the GP3?
There is no modifications other than intake. The GP3 does not make this noise because it has a different turbo, which must not make this noise.
@@EvolveAutomotive thank you
with the performance+, lets say I use a BMS JB plus, will the hp+ sort of adding together? or overlap
Where did you get your black badges (Mini Logo) from?
Painted them
Don’t suppose these fit on the 1.2 turbo f56 mini one?😂 looks and sounds amazing
Would it be pointless to install one on a f56 without a tune?
Evolve Automotive, what is the stage1 tune that you are using?
Our own
Are u fitting super sprint down pipe next or another make?
We have a Scorpion downpipe to put on
How does the intake work in heave rain. ? Do you get waterinjection as well 😉
Being a product designed in the U.K. it’s been extensively tested in heavy rain, and it has an internal drain to stop water reaching the filter.
how long did the installation take?
Why more power in the JCW vs the Cooper S with the same Stage 1 ECU remap? I was under the impression the only cause for more power (JCW vs S) was the ECU mapping...
Factory JCW has a larger turbo that's why it makes more power
Not just turbo, you have different compression ratios due to the shorter pistons in the jcw. Standard Cooper s turbo can still push to 320 bhp if you change the pistons without a hybrid turbo. Jcw is a better starting point for long term tuning
@@wattybrownes great to know! Thank you!
Looks great, but won’t the hood scoop suck in rain water?
The intake was designed and tested in the UK, its had some serious use in heavy rain with no issue thanks to preventative measures.
Fab looking kit, does the water go into the intake if its raining? Its what I want on my F56. Cheers.
No it has been designed and tested in UK climate so no issue with heavy rainfall
@@EvolveAutomotive thanks for letting me know. I'll be in touch. Cheers Keith
Stupid question about this, does this intake make it so you cannot drive in the rain without risk of getting water in the manifold?
No, it is designed to not allow water into the filter.
Wiith the bonnet scoop, will heavy rain water wet the cone filter?
Since we have a direct airflow path to the filter, it is important that we also allow for water to be drained before reaching the filter. In order to protect against excess water ingress, we have designed several features into the intake components as follows.
1) The top of the scoop covers the openings which stops rainfall entering the duct when the car is at a standstill.
2) The scoop has 2 flow directing ramps which also act as a water barrier by forcing the water to fall down onto the base of the duct rather than moving straight to the filter area.
3) The duct has 2 openings to allow water to drain out - above the radiator and also a drain hole before the filter housing connection.
4) The face of the duct as it meets the filter housing has a wall on which the rubber edging is secured. This wall stops any build up of water from directly entering the filter and water is drained through the extra drain hole.
I just received Eventuri from outmotoring . I wanted to install it on my 2017 cooper s pre lci however the cold air plenum interferes with the hood ! It will not close ive tried several times ? Any help would be appreciated . Thanks
Contact sales@eventuri.net
Will do thank you!
I’m not sure what pre-lci or Lci means, I have a 2015 JCW Cooper S I’d like to install this on
Contact sales@evolveautomotive.com with your VIN, we can determine for you. Your year should be Pre-LCI for sure.
What happens with this when its raining, all the water cant go in the engine so how does it get rid of it?

Does the f60 version fit the f56 if I don't want the carbon hood intake?
Hasn’t been tested but I’d assume so.
Nice, thanks for the fast reply.
Can i install this on a 2017 mini cooper S with the JCW tune kit? do i need to remap?
Yes you can. No remap required
Have u purchased Eventuri? How was the sound?
I want one 2 so bad 😢😭for the jcw
How much is this kit?
That looks really good but what happens when it rains? Wouldn’t the water get into the engine?
Not it doesn't. It has a drain hole and if water was to get through it has to go through the turbo and intercooler before it gets anywhere near the engine. We tested this in typical wet UK weather for thousands of miles before releasing it.
@@EvolveAutomotive I just read on the Eventuri site there are a few safe guard measure to limit water ingress. Nice to hear your wet weather experiences have been good.
its $1500 i would hope not xD
Hello ....french cooper s r 55 clubman
Thank you
Any plans for an ABS plastic version? The carbon is cool, but very cost prohibitive.
evolve made this video not eventuri you have to pay attention, go contact eventuri
Jcraff3 the dude is co-owner of Eventuri.
S1MN05 Agreed need to appeal to the wider market
Jcraff3 alright, calm down, dad.
@@jcraff3 Evolve IS Eventuri. Eventuri IS Evolve. yOu hAvE tO pAy aTteNtIoN!!!
Any new updates on the intake guys ? Ready to purchase.....
This has been available since this video was published.
@Evolve Automotive gonna have a look about. Dam you easter holidays lol 😆
fits in a f54 clubman jcw 2020?
Depends what engine it has. If it has the same 306hp engine as the M135i and GP3 then no, there is a new intake in development for it.
I really don't know much about this kind of stuff, but surely that hood scoop will direct rain water straight into the intake system?
It has been designed that this won’t happen. The water will drain away and not enter the intake system.
Being a product designed in the UK you better believe it was tested for rain 🤣
@@EvolveAutomotive 😂😂 I thought that might be the case. Btw I'd like to visit you guys soon to have my daily BMW 330d LCI to be remapped. I'm hoping sometime next month, if I can get away from work for a day 😂🤦♂️
@@EvolveAutomotive surely vacuum pressure of the engine running would suck water droplets into the filter without a doubt. the only time water wouldn't go into the filter is when standing still with the engine off, no amount of engineering would stop that unless a preventative method was inplace.
that filter element looks to be a cotton type similar to that (if not identical to K&N) so it could also be an oiled type (to catch dirt) however that doesn't prevent water going further into the intake channel/engine unless a rain shield/cover is fitted.
that issue would also be made worse when driving in heavy rain behind heavy traffic or large vehicles producing a large wash "a big issue here in the UK/Europe"
@@malp6280 No - why don't you actually read the details about this system on our site rather than jumping to conclusions?
@@Eventuri I have visited your site & in now way is their an answer nor example of any method of this filter system preventing water being sucked into the filter via the engine vacuum created (ok the vacuum isn't going to be that much due to the x4 ports air has to be collected from (x2 ports in a lower pressure area & x2 in a high pressure area)
maybe a study should be carried out as to why manufactures offer rain guards/socks especially in environments such as northern Europe etc (some supply these items as standards due to it maximising efficiency/life of the product)
Will this also work for a F55 mini
I believe so yes, if it has the B48 engine. You can contact Eventuri directly to confirm before purchase.
Quality intake with outstanding gains. Would be interesting if you mentioned the costs? Good to see you on the tools. 👍
Costs are different for different countries that's why we don't mention it in the videos. Easy to check on our websites or shoot us an email 👍
Am I the only one wondering why Mini made those holes that even line up perfect with the splitting of the original air intake? I think Mini had the same idea but eventually did not go for it.. you think for yourself why that is..
Why do you think that is? From what I'm seeing here, this intake system allows even more ambient air to make its way into the pipe. You gather otherwise?
This turbo sound fffssshh I think its mostly because of the stage 1? If the car had no chip would it still make this? Cheers
Tune cannot change the fundamental noise the turbo makes. The standard air box is muffling the noise.
Just installed the carbon one. Looks are def second to none - what I did not expect though to see was that much power from lows on sport mode. It PULLS
Any comments about the Tyres? I don't know much about Tyres therefore I'm asking if those he said are the best out there. Essentially I'm asking what are the best Tyres in the market for this car. Asking to everyone
Best all round tyre I believe so. A dedicated track tyre would provide more grip in ideal conditions, but would be worse in cold and wet weather. This is an every day car designed for road use so that influences the tyre decision.
There are probably very closely matched alternatives from the likes of Goodyear and Continental also.
@@EvolveAutomotive thanks for the answer and for your time. I Wil take on account your Tyre suggestion for my beast
When can we expect to see some of this stuff coming over to the B48 BMWs?
We already tune the B48 BMW. This intake also fits the X1 (and we believe X2) as they are essentially a bigger Mini. I believe B48 development has started on the G20 3 Series, unsure on F series chassis.
Evolve Automotive I’m looking to tune my car sometime in the future, do you guys offer dyno sessions?
Autocorrect changed dyno to funk? If so yes we can do dyno runs.
Evolve Automotive yeah no idea how I missed that, I did mean dyno. 😂
iF i buy this will it need remapped?
No, works with stock ECU software with no errors
Not sure if I like the noise on the mini intake , but would have to hear it in the flesh to give a proper opinion (not that my opinion counts) 😂
I’ve been considering about getting my M4 intake done but wondered how loud it would be in and outside the car compared to standard intake ?
Yeah it's quite loud but suits the fun nature of the car. We will do a video on the M3/4 intake at some point. It's not as loud as this
Could you do some M140i eventrui intake videos
Evolve Automotive
I know these intake’s take a while to make but been pondering for a while, what would be the earliest I would be able to get one fitted , as I’m at a Motec meet next Sunday and initially was going to ring yourselves to get one fitted then .
If you could let me know the earliest as I’ll be driving down from Plymouth Devon !
@@batebee email sales@evolveautomotive.com and we can see what we can do for you. Typically the intakes have around a 2-3 week lead time. We also only work Monday-Friday. As shown it's fairly simple to fit though! (other than the bit Aston helped)
Hi Mate would like to meet and chat if possible could we arrange this? I want to get the kit and have it fitted
Hi, please email sales@evolveautomotive.com, thanks
Is it stock turbo?
Yes stock turbo.
12 weeks to get my order and still not here, GG guys
is it easy to install for someone who known nothing ?
Fairly simple yes, and instructions are provided.
Why no cheaper plastic variant of this design ?
They don’t sell very well, meaning it’s not worth the mould costs
how do you get that turbo sound/flutter
All depends on the individual turbo setup and how it is wastegated I believe. The Mini does the noise from factory. The newer 306hp variant found in the GP3/M135i doesn’t make the same noise.
@@EvolveAutomotive thanks for the info, which trans hasa better tuning potential dct or manual?
We don’t have first hand experience with a DCT Mini, have only tuned them remotely. Manual would be our choice still for maximum power.
@@EvolveAutomotive What are the gains for the dct knowing theres a trans box limitation
If you email sales@evolveautomotive.com with your build date we can tell you power gains and if we can tune it, June 2020 onwards is currently untunable due to locked ECU.
Isn’t rain just going to get in through the bonnet scoop
brad king there is a drainage mechanism
What mechanism do you use? Where does the water go? Driving at 70mph in heavy rain, I would have thought the scoop would act a rain collector and fill the intake and wetting the air filter
brad king have a read on the product details - at the bottom
brad king www.eventuri.net/products/f56-f54-f5x-mini-cooper-s-jcw/#tab2
Eventuri How big is the drainage hole? It does give dimensions
Looks so good. Found it about 850$
Is that riiight....where & thank you please
@@ap3stax I mean dollars. On ECS. Cheers 🇧🇷
But i think the full system is almost 2k.
@@Headxoxote oh ok thanks
The version with the plastic parts but still the carbon scoop saves you that cash...$850 for the plastic under the hood bits and $1500+ for all carbon.
Do you know how much stock internals can handle in a 2015 Mini Cooper S ?300 possibly 400torque?
Automatic transmission
You're looking at 350ft lb torque before you're looking at transmission failure but no one has pushed it hard enough yet. The new f56 with the zf 8 is much more durable.
@@wattybrownes I'm already at 270hp to the wheels and 310 torque with full bolt ons and a ECU tune. Was looking to do a turbo upgrade to my 2015 mini Cooper S
@@wattybrownes appreciate your response just looking for someone that has done it before 😄
@@dustinjahn2651 I have done a hybrid turbo upgrade with arma intake, airtec intercooler, forged pistons, rods, crank and valve springs. Had the tune by dervtech in Manchester and have dyno the f56 Cooper s to 410bhp and 460 ft lb.
Clutch is failing now so will be swapping that out for a ceramic clutch. Currently sourcing a reputable supplier.
All in all if you have the automatic you are limited by the box unfortunately but for everyday use probably a good enough option!
I now use my mini once a month to car meets or track days in the summer.
@@wattybrownes thanks
my techs are really busy I'll fit the intake....cuts to a tech doing the job anyway. 3:40 lol!
He became not so busy 🤣
Without the hood scoop inlets this would fit a F48 X1 with the B48 engine....
Yes it does. Studie in Japan have one fitted to their car 👍
Do you have them available?
@@philm.1045 2 week lead time but yeah can be bought email or call us 👍
Send me one to test on my f56 JCW!
Sure thing, can we get some money to test while we’re at it? 🤣
@@EvolveAutomotive Well played!!!! :)
Go crazy, swap a v6 twin turbo ;)
Does this actually create more power ? Proven on a rolling road ?
Or maybe throw a pressure sensor into the inlet ? To see if there really is a ram air effect.
I mean the turbo sucks air in anyway… yes a tad more cool air under the bonnet (maybe) but only if the factory inlet is actually too small…
And the noise, honestly that sounds like a loose pulley to me….
Anc that’s way too much money for Carbon look parts that I dislike anyway.
Last not least, do a weight comparison between the stock and this “system” the only purpose for a carbon part in my world is either stiffness (if it’s a load bearing part) or weight savings or both… and then I look at myself and I know where I could save so many kilos without any carbon…
Yes, proven on both independent dynos and in real world on road testing.
The use of carbon fibre is because of its excellent properties as an insulator. Go for a drive and feel how heat soaked the standard plastic is. That heat is radiating in to your intake system raising your IAT even further.
If you don’t like the product or the company for whatever reason that’s fine, it’s a free world and you’re allowed your opinion. Thank you for watching and all the best.
So when its pouring hard (raining hard) how the scoop will separate the water from air intake?
That's a lie of bhp increase, I had a arma intake and had it tested 8 times. Make like 1 bhp gain and 4 ftlb change. Absolute false advertising
Does this look like an Arma intake? The Dyno test on the Cooper S was done on MsL Dyno who have no reason to fudge the figures and we've provided acceleration times. And again it's not Arma!
@@EvolveAutomotive but the principal is the same... All you have done is add a hole to the bonnet. Air flow from the fans makes no difference? Prove it by doing a video of the car on the dyno uncut with stock box to air intake I'm will to bet money it makes no difference. The only reason to fit a sport intake is for easier breathing I.e cooler etc not for the gains your advertising
@@wattybrownes Eventuri is nothing like the Arma. If you can't see that there is no point debating with you.
@@EvolveAutomotive the only differences are your claiming the scoop will force air in... Won't make it cooler, won't make it flow quicker. In fact the air filter your using only allows between 0.14-0.16% more air in. The only benefit is heat soak. I'm going to bet as you have gone for a reverse style filter that there is no real space between the carbon cone and filter. So waste of time.
Simply post a video of the mini on dyno running stock air intake with bonnet down and without cutting video, install new intake and run dyno 6 times. I bet you will only see a slight increase of power like 1-3 bhp and maybe 8-10 ft lb of gains. If the power drops each run still then its not worth it.
I'm betting you won't do anything to prove these mad claims
Thought as much
Ich glaub ehrlich gesagt nicht, dass dieses System einen sonderlich großen Mehrwert bringt. Dieses ständige herum gepfusche an den Werksseitigen Ansaugsystemen. Da verspreche ich mir deutlich mehr von einem optimierten LLK und einem Upgrade-Lader. Aber wer´s braucht. PS: Eine Sleeper-Optik mit Bäääm-Effekt finde ich eh sympathischer..
1500 dollars are you effing kidding? lol why that much? holy crap 500 dollars max for an intake that's truly functional and works for a LS
Shame about the price, ridiculous cost even for the plastic one. The LEAP intake is a fraction of the cost.
Plus the new airbox won't have that shitty rattle the factory one gets
I thought it was a named Toby because he was black.... like.... ya know.... Kunta Kente.... What?! Am i the only one? Lol
First!!!!
Next time have your guys remove the old intake , So you can answer the phones.
We need a cheaper alternative, like something made of plastic.
There is a plastic version
Looks exspencive..... 1,290 pounds Ye fuck that. I'll stick with a kn filter. Not like anybody looks under the bonnet lol.
We don’t really think it’s fair comparing something that makes power and has a carbon bonnet scoop, with something that does nothing, but okay, you do you Daniel.
Thank you for the video. After installation, did you have to do any dino resetting to the system so that the car can benefit from the new intake?
None at all, Eventuri systems are plug and play
