Tape?

Nope. haven't seen any compelling data to change an air filter (and probably won't care under warranty). I'm not going to chase HP gains with this car. My wife and I drove about a hundred miles yesterday across the Hudson Valley on some fun roads and I never came close to having more road than power. For me, this really is the spiritual 2nd gen NSX that just leaves me craving more time to be in it.

Ahh, I hear ya! I was thinking the k&n will let this thing breathe better which would = more intake noise, whether or not that’s a good thing. I’m done chasing HP, did that with my Subaru and it’s at a very healthy number now.

Woah, I was going to do this exact same thing to my nimbus, but decided to just ppf all black instead (like the full black pack.). Do you have any pics further away?

Tape?

That's my guess. I haven't seen replacement carbon mirrors or roof. @rok73 ?

Not at the moment. Did a few quick close pics only. But they will follow soon

How do you like the eventuri?

Supercharger is louder, engine seems to rev more freely. Need to drive it a bit before I can say if it feels more powerful.

How difficult was the install? Looks pretty cramped down where the air box sits.

It's pretty straightforward. Takes about one hour and the instructions are clear and detailed.

Just gotta remove the rear wheel and pull the fender liner and it's pretty quick. Most people who complain about it being a difficult job tried to do everything from the top. Removing the stock airbox from that cramped space can be a bit of a pain.

You have to remove the rear wheel like the Evora GT? I didn’t see that in the instructions. When I did this for my Evora it was like 3 hours but I needed to remove the wheel and I didn’t think that was needed for the Emira

Maybe not on the Emira! I assumed it was the same process for both.

Ah, ok would be good for someone who has made the swap to confirm if the wheel needs to be removed

Paging @GRP to confirm. On the Evora there is an airbox clip that's a pain to reach from the top. That and the air flow duct tube thing. I don't even know if the Emira has that.

 

[LuckysDad]

@Golden Parrot did you have to remove the wheel and/or wheel liner?

no need. it's easily accessible (with a bit of leaning and stretching) from the engine bay.

Now that my Emira is at around 400 miles, im preparing to do oil change but I dont trust myself with this car so DIY is out of the option. Planning on taking my car to a shop, I know dealer charges a lot, so do you recommend taking it to Jiffy Lube or any oil change shop ? can anyone help me with this?

If you've ever changed oil in any other car, you can easily tackle it on this car.
DO NOT take it to Jiffy Lube

DIY - Oil Change Reference for 2GR-FE

I recently did an oil change on my 2021 Evora GT. Since this is an Emira forum, my intention is not to provide detailed steps because there may be minor differences between Evora and Emira. However, since both cars use the same V6, my experience might help you when you are ready to try an oil...
