Eventuri – B9 RS4 RS5 Black Carbon Intake

Performance Gain: 11-16hp, 12-17ft-lb At The Wheels

The Audi B9 RS4/RS5 Eventuri intake was developed to give less restrictive airflow to the turbo whilst maintaining low inlet temperatures. The RS5/RS4 engine bay becomes heat soaked very quickly so simply having an open cone system would result in better airflow but with higher inlet temperatures. We therefore completely re-engineered the inlet track from the turbo inlet pipe to the front grill with a highly efficient sealed system. The restrictive stock airbox and flexible plastic inlet pipe have been replaced with a Venturi filter housing and a duct system with smooth transitions. Furthermore, by removing the convoluted stock inlet pipe and replacing it with our one-piece Venturi housing and solid tube, the airflow is much smoother as it enters the turbo inlet tube. The resulting performance gains and aesthetics are industry leading for this platform.

The Eventuri Difference

The B9 RS4/RS5 Eventuri system uses our Patent Pending Carbon fibre Housings with our bespoke Gen-2 filter which provide an aerodynamically efficient airflow path from the filter to the inlet tubes. Not just another cone filter with a heat shield but a unique design which invokes the Venturi effect. You can read more about the housing design and how it works HERE

Part Numbers:

EVE-B9RS5-CF-INT : Audi B9 RS5/RS4 Black Carbon intake with secondary duct

Each intake system consists of:

• Carbon Fiber Venturi housing with intergated tube
• High Flow Generation 2 Filter
• Carbon Fiber Intake Duct
• Carbon Fiber Front Scoop
• Carbon Fiber Secondary Duct
• High Quality Silicon Couplers and OEM Spec Hose Clamps
• Laser Cut Stainless Steel Bracket Work
• CNC Machined Mounting Stubs

Carbon Intake Housing Assemblies

The filter housing comprises of our bespoke generation 2 filter, the carbon pod and integrated tube. The carbon pod shrouds the reverse mounted filter and smoothly shapes the airflow down to the turbo tube which it matches in diameter to the turbo tube. This is a key feature of the intake design where we have removed the requirement for a convoluted rubber hose between the intake and the engine. The filter housing and integrated tube extends all the way to the stock turbo tube and by mounting this to the engine, the entire filter housing moves with the engine. As the engine and filter housing moves under acceleration, it is able to maintain a seal to the duct through the use of an expanding rubber extrusion which is mounted to the face of the duct (see below).

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 patent pending design and a regular intake system. Our bespoke filters aid the airflow moving through the housings and allow for an even velocity profile as the airflow exits the housings. Further details can be read in the Technology and Filters pages.

Carbon Fiber Intake Ducts

For the complete carbon fiber setup we have also crafted the secondary duct from carbon. This part connects the main carbon duct to the air entry region on the slam panel. It eliminates the holes on the OEM part and matches the rest of the system for a more finished aesthetic.

Carbon Fiber Air Scoop

The final carbon components in this system is the front scoop – essential to direct ambient air to the duct and then to the filter.

The scoop was designed with a constant bend radius for maximum efficiency in directing the incoming air to the duct opening. It allows the inlet air temperatures to be as low as possible and increase the rate of drop in IATs after the system is heat soaked during a standstill.

Custom Bracket Work

To ensure a perfect fit we spend a lot of development time on the mounting hardware. Like all our intakes, the brackets are specifically designed for the application and for the B9 S4/S5 system, the brackets are laser cut from stainless steel and then powder coated for durability. The CNC machined mounts are then secured to the brackets and push into the stock rubber mounts which the stock airbox uses to secure to. This ensures our intake fits just like the OEM system.

All the components come together in the engine bay to produce a genuine improvement in the driving experience as well as providing an incredible visual display of form and function in complete harmony.

Performance

Below is an independent dyno graph showing the comparison between the Eventuri and the stock airbox on a B9 RS5. The car had no other modifications. As you can see, power and torque are increased through a large portion of the rpm range. This translates on the road to increased part throttle and full throttle response with the car pulling much more eagerly to the redline. The testing was done on the same day back-to-back and temperatures were monitored to ensure consistency. The bonnet was closed for all runs.

The gains are from a combination of reasons:

1. The sealed system keeps IATs low – especially with the front air scoop which forces air into the system.
2. The Venturi housing provides a smooth transition from the filter to the intake tube with no convoluted rubber section. This helps the turbo to run more efficiently by maintaining laminar flow in the inlet track.
3. The entire system is constructed from pure pre-preg carbon fibre which is great at insulating from heat.
