A GoPro will be in the CNC machine when the first one is cut.

Sure it's too late, but if you need an East Coast test car I'd be happy to buy a kit and post up independent numbers and reviews

I really hope a car/kit will be ready before bimmerfest. That would be epic if it can make it out here.

Thanks! Evolve Automotive and VS Motorsports were the two responsible for making my dream come true. I have been lusting for a CF Airbox ever since I saw the E46 M3 CSL Concept Car. Now it's an incredible reality!

Not only does it sound great, but it sure rips through the gears!

Hopefully that's just for the prototype. 60kg of aluminum and 16 hrs machine time is not going to be cost effective for anyone.

So what makes this system better than the AA HKS/Rotrex kit? AA doesn't seem to be a popular choice and Evolve is basing their system on the same type of supercharger. Why would I choose this system over a ESS or VF supercharger.

tstanley, the aa and evolve kits use an air to air intercooler. the vf and ess use heat exchangers. Each have their advantages, and some people prefer one over the other.

Granted, from the last pic I glanced at the AA intercooler is behind the crash beam... I'd like to see evolve place the intercooler where it can get more air.
