1ZZ Throttle+Bomz intake=Power!

[fuji]

I installed the throttle body I got from Garm. Instead of the stock intake, I used a Bomz intake - I just could note get the stock rubber intake tube over the new throttle body. The Bomz silcone intake adapter was a breeze. Install was not very hard at all - just a pain in the ass to get to the wheel well to get the filter on. While I was down there, I decided to pop out the black plastic insert where the fog light goes just to see if a bit more cold air will make a difference.

Wow! Power/torque in the whole PM range with the most prominent gain in the mid and upper ranges. I had only a bit of mild oscillation on the initial start up and no problems since. For the price, this is a MUST mod.

Interestingly my exhaust sounds louder. It is not coming from the front as I expected.

Just make sure you follow all the instructions on the website, gasket sealer is a good idea, disconnect the battery for a while(only did mine for 30 min and left the light switch on)

I will modify the L foglight plastic insert into something more cosmetically pleasing. I will also change the silicon to black and paint the intake tube flat black.
