Hello all.

I’m thinking about grabbing a closed intake, but nothing too expensive. The Injen evolution for gen 1 b58 has been looking good, especially around that $300 mark. Does anyone have any reviews or sound clips? Literally none on YouTube. Thanks!!

Also, any other closed box intakes that would work well on a stg 2+ car, I’m all ears. I’m running the stock intake at the moment, and thought I would want a bit more sound.

Injen makes quality intakes, we sold a lot of the B58 EVO , never had an issue.

cause there is no sound on this intake, it's a closed one, you will not hear anything just like the oem bmw stock airbox

if you want sound, you need to buy open air intake (or closed intake but with thin aluminum heat shield like MST). injen evo plastic is thick, that's why no sound.

That’s what I assumed, there’s like 1 or 2 guys that said you can hear it full throttle. Honestly a waste of money on the stock turbo yea?

Closed intakes are louder than stock, its not as loud as the open intakes but you can definitely hear a difference.

If you are looking for a loud intake, check out the MAD intake. its open, with a heatshield and uses high-flow filters.

Oh dang, I forgot about them! I’ll look into it. Decent sound, good price, and maybe even a performance benefit is something I’ve been looking for.

Honestly I haven't got one. Cannot really hear it, but I put the vellosatech ram air scoop on and I can hear the intake more now. It's very mild.

Hey thanks for that,
I dont mind if its subtle, as long as i would be able to hear it when accelerating with the windows down

I looked up videos for the air scoop seems like a good idea but im not looking for the deep breathing sound, im looking for more of the hissing turbo spool sound under acceleration. I have seen some good videos but they wont share their setup.

I know the eventuri cold air intake has a great sound which im looking for but way too expensive.

Does the injen intake alone have that hissing turbo sound when accelerating? Or does it have the deep breathing sound when you let go of the gas?

Thanks

I'd say a bit both both, but only very subtle. Only reason why i didn't get something like the MST intake was due to wanting a completely closed design. I was expecting no sounds, and wasn't really surprised as it doesn't sound like much. After adding the scoop, I can hear the whoosh when I let off a tiny bit.

We have two options

Our airbox design which is not fully sealed so you still get the sound and if you want more sound you could always leave the lid off.

Larger tubing performance intake with no shields. This will be the louder of the two.
