Ultimate E92 M3 Noise Upgrade - Stage 2 + Eventuri Carbon Plenum

It's no secret that we absolutely love an E92 M3, and with a few mods it already makes a hugely capable car, maybe even perfect for UK road use.
This car came in for just that. We fitted our Primary Cat Delete pipes along with Stage 2 Tune and GTS DCT Software to liven up the engine and gearbox, making the car more exciting to drive and some added exhaust sound.
Along with that we fitted the Eventuri Carbon Fibre Plenum and Airbox Lid. Whilst this does nothing for the performance of the car, it does a huge amount of the sense of occasion. Under full throttle you get an immense induction roar from the 8 throttle bodies of the S65 engine, making you want to drive it more and more, the noise becoming increasingly addictive.
These 2 things make what we consider the perfect road going E92 M3, building upon the already hugely capable base of a Competition Pack car.

The only v8 in an m3 but what an engine, sound difference is CRAZY :O I need an e92 m3 now

[@Haider_Malik]

Induction noise 😍😍 Sounds mental compared to standard! I was content with my E46 M3 but think it’s time!!😁 Need a V8 with the Evolve touch in my life 👌🏽

[@eastoakland-S65feen]

I think your right. Go ahead & pass that e46 to me & get yorself another car bro🤙.. jk but i say keep it & still get the e92 m3.. theyr gna b valuable because of the n/a engines

That’s one clean M3, colour suits it, nice to see something different to all the blue/black/white and silver M3’s out there. Like the content of this video, bit more down and dirty, it’s good to see work being done and obviously hear and see your awesome manifold. You can literally see the carbon top resonate as you blip it.

This is the first video where I can actually see the plenum vibrate. No wonder why they can get so loud, it is practically a loud speaker! I've paid way too much attention to exhausts in the past as I believed exhausts are dealing with higher pressures and temperatures. Now I see plenums are equally technical.

[@howiegreen1646]

[@joetaka7620]

Whenever I see an 'Eventuri Carbon Plenum' video on youtube, I automatically press 👍 Would this Carbon Plenum (+ stage 2 remap) be compatible with the M3 GTS and M3 CRTs that have the S65B44 engine? Also, do you think its a requirement to have an extra transmission cooler for the DCT if a 'regular' M3 owner was to get a GTS tune for their DCT? Many thanks and keep up the great work.

[@EvolveAutomotive]

Yes the Eventuri Plenum would work with those cars, as far as I know the plenum itself is identical. Cooler wise definitely not for average use, we haven’t found a need to upgrade it for even hard road driving. Extreme conditions like mountain/canyons with a lot of shifting and track use potentially, but that would be the same without the tune.

[@Patr1ck2332]

I have an LE500 E92 M3, had an E60 M5 and currently have an M6 GC along side it. For me it’s the best M car ever made, the technical specs and pure car geekery of the engine, gearbox and chassis will never be found again in an M. A keeper for life.

[@EvolveAutomotive]

We would be inclined to agree with you having owned the new cars too. The M2 will also go down as being one of the greats.

[@Patr1ck2332]

Evolve Automotive agreed the M2 was a resurgence in an otherwise downward slope for the M brand. E chassis cars are the ones people will remember. Looking forward to bringing my car for the upgrades later in the year.

[@YZFR6Yammie]

Yeah you all should pick up another e92 m3 soon 😍

[@EvolveAutomotive]

Yes for sure

[@grahamwood1930]

great content and great products guys!😍 The resonance of the CF plenum is the key to the sound. I'm sure you guys have made note of this, but seems like top have of the plenum hits its natural frequency, and you can see it physically resonating in the center of the plenum (12:12). Maybe some shape factor on the underside of the skin would mitigate this, and improve fatigue life! This is a year on now, has anything been done to address G

[@EvolveAutomotive]

Eventuri rigorously tested this product before release. When stationary the top of the plenum flexes slightly, this is due to the specified thickness of the carbon fibre to tune the sound. In motion with road speed air flowing freely through the system/RPM increasing at a slower rate under load this does not happen. As such there has been no evidence of damage occurring over time, even with some of these Plenums now having been used for 3 years on cars that get used hard on track.

[@grahamwood1930]

@@EvolveAutomotive thanks for the reply!

[@troypatillo1688]

The only downside to the e9x m3 was the low torque. I’m glad you were able to increase it some. 295 lb/ft is just too low. It was still my favorite car.

[@birkleandetailing]

Your perfect spec e92 imran hehehe

[@EvolveAutomotive]

Almost 😝

[@daveisasdavedoes3558]

I noticed when you were revving the engine with the bonnet open, in the comparison part of the video, that the plenum was vibrating, is there any risk of this causing fatigue over time and having carbon ingested into your engine?

[@zenscapeUKmedia]

Looks ace - a bit concerned about the plenum volume collapse aspect. Is the reduction of carbon thickness to get noise allowing the top surface be depressurised by the induction vacuum? I would expect that to reduce the volume of the plenum like a "lung" and create a wave, slowing down the intake speed, particularly around the rear trumpet pairs. Not an issue with a forced induction engine as the intake pressure is positive, but an NA engine relies on constant negative pressure for the resonance frequencies. You could be hearing wave reversals (like exhaust back pressure). But I'm no flow engineer!

[@dashurik1]

Imran! What warranty is given on longevity of your plenum?When you reved could clearly see top area was flexing a lot ! Will it withstand extensive use and revving in long time? Got impression top can eventually go and develop some sort of crack! Thanks

M3 V8 ONE OF THE BEST M CARS SOUND AMAZING, ANY GAINS WITH THIS MODS??

[@arjunsamuel]

Hi soundsas you say Epic. Does decat mess up the emissions? Why wound BMW have 2 sets of cats?

[@TheLogitech91]

Regarding the GTS. Did BMW actually up grade the DCT to handle the GTS software update. Here in the US there is a back and forth as to the validity of that question. Some say it creates a lot more heat? Is that correct?

[@Mochachinoexfk]

Not sure if anyone else has mentioned it, but you say there are no gains with this plenum etc however, with it being carbon would that not reduce the intake temperature, or at least be more resistant to bay temperatures and therefore producing extra ponies?

[@EvolveAutomotive]

There may be, but nothing that was measured on the Dyno. We tested it to ensure it didn’t effect the power curve.

[@eraayzo453]

Can i get a playlist link from you guys? These instrumentals are fire

hey guys.. sorry if this has already been asked but, wont the primary cats being effectively cut out of the system mean the MOT testers will fail you for not having a visual cat? Please correct me if I am wrong.

[@zakikasim6542]

Would the plenum be worth adding if I already have akra installed (with evolve tune) ?

[@kalheer]

Love the informative video... that sound is bonza - got my E92 itch going. Question: Was it the engle wobble or light under acceleration, but it looked like the plenum delaminated a touch like a vacum effect when testing the sound after the mods..?

[@EvolveAutomotive]

Not de-lamination, flex as the throttle bodies open and suck air in, causing a vacuum inside the plenum. The trumpets are designed to work in this vacuum, engineered to aid in the engine sucking air in. It’s all perfectly normal and has been extensively tested.

[@kalheer]

[@rich_forever9485]

Amazing!!! I’m getting an E92 M3 as well, I can’t wait to get these parts!!! I have a question though. Is the carbon fiber plenum actually lighter than the OEM plenum? And if so, would that mean minimal horsepower and torque gain?

[@EvolveAutomotive]

It’s lighter yes, I forget the figure off the top of my head but it’s somewhere around 1.5kg I believe. Weight of the plenum would not effect horsepower or torque. It would marginally effect power to weight ratio.

[@rich_forever9485]

Evolve Automotive Fantastic!! Did you or will you do dyno runs?

[@RK1FX]

12:15 is it OK for the plenum to bend like that under load/ air suction?

[@EvolveAutomotive]

Yes, it was extensively tested on road and track, with multiple iterations of thickness to tune the sound and test the carbon fibre

[@flash573]

Exactly my thoughts when I saw the plenum under vacuum. Just wondering if that would affect air flow or cause some unworthy turbulence..

[@jackassrower]

I would be more concerned about long term structural integrity and eventually bits of resin breaking off and becoming ingested by the motor.

[@EvolveAutomotive]

@@jackassrower it's pre preg carbon ..not over lay..
