    Beautiful intake system, at that price point this system should provide a precut section of factory carpet in my opinion.

    Pretty nifty product. Almost makes me want to go buy a C8 just to put this thing on it. However, I have a question. Where are the filters? The Eventuri has filters, yes? 18 hp, that's pretty stout. Second, and perhaps even more impressive is the tutorial in and of itself. Others who claim to do instructional videos should stop by here and see how it's really done. Having been a dealership tech for many years it's like a video version of the shop manual. Nice job!

    • @ParagonPerformance
      @ParagonPerformance  Рік тому

      Wait until you drive a C8, then you'll really want one.
      The filters are pre-installed in those "Cone" shapes.

    How does it handle high temperature, I.E fading and or yellowing? From what I understand it can get spicy under the hatch!?

    • @ParagonPerformance
      @ParagonPerformance  Рік тому

      Great question, from the testing Eventuri has done the polycarbonate cover has not faded, warped or discolored. Most of the heat will escape out the decklid vents.
      The material is very similar to the C8 Convertible Clear Engine Bay Clear Cover which hasn't had any issues itself.

      This intake will not void your warranty as it acts like an OEM unit just with a bigger volume of air & increased velocity. No check engine lights will show up if you install it correctly & plug the sensors in correctly. Yes we can do the install for you, we are located in Waukee, Iowa. Give us a call at 515-414-8993 to schedule.

      Both options are great it just depends what you’re looking. Halltech has good gains for the price. Eventuri has the best gains on the market and is the only visible intake. Can’t go wrong with either.
      If you’re looking for peak performance go with Eventuri as it works really well with Headers and the Lingenfelter PTR manifold.
