Here you go, someones gotta give it a shot. The piping looks about right, the maf port looks to be in the right spot so that it wont throw a code. Has the vacuum port.

The only thing I see that is iffy is that the vacuum port is located next to the filter. If anyone has a reason why that may be bad for it, please post here. Otherwise you would need a good piece of extension hose that does not look included.

looks like a generic image to me... the vacume tube wont be long enough, unless it come with an extender
the weapon R is only $109 shipped, is it worth toying with this thing?

i wouldnt waste my money on a SRI! they wont give you extra hp. if you like it loud then go and get it. CAI is probably better.

If anything I'd like to see some dyno numbers between a sri and a cai...On this car I doubt that you would notice the difference between the two.

I made my own, on a different car, using two pieces or polished tubing, one urethane adapter for the TB end, and a K&N filter. Total cost: less than $75, and it lasted forever, looked great, and made a huge difference in sound and acceleration. The only drawback to that plan as far as the Yaris is concerned: figuring in those vac bungs :iono:

I already have a wai otherwise I would have probably given this a shot, just for curiousitys sake. It looks decently built. It is a CAI, definately way too long to keep the filter inside the engine bay. My only concerns were the air hose, and whether the maf wiring would be long enough. I agree the filter it comes with is probably junk, use it for a few thousand miles and then get a k&n, still keeps you decently under the cost of an aem or fujita CAI. Someone give it a try.

Looks good to me. Piping is piping, its just the filter that might be different. AEM makes the intakes for other companies like mr gasket, etc.....
