Alright, to clear things up a bit......

Seems if the EGR tube is between the filter and MAF, the intake manufacture includes an inline one way sealed filter, to splice into the provided tubing going from the intake pipe, to the engine.

Reason for this, is to keep the gases in the EGR from contaminating the air being sucked into the filter, and messing with the MAF Sensor.

So turns out, as long as the EGR is between the filter and MAF, it should have an included inline one way sealed filter.

If the EGR is after the MAF and before the Throttle Body, then even better.

So looks like the green intake you posted up, would be worth a shot afterall, as long as the piping is the correct I.D.!

EDIT the piping is 3", so going back to that other home made metal piping someone used before, the car didnt idle right, or run right..

I recieved my intake today from Jay at c2auto.com. If anyone is curious it is an AEM 2 in. diameter tubing and the hose goes inbetween the throttle body and the sensor. So it goes throttle body, hose, MAF, and then the filter. Does anyone else have the AEM intkae in their Yaris currently. It is like 15 degrees here and I havent mustard up the courage to put it in. The total length is about 22 in.

Guys EGR should not be going to your intake!! EGR is on the Exhaust side of a motor!

the EG in egr is on the exhaust side, but the R and the recirculation part, are on the intake side, so that the exhaust gas is recirculated through motor, warming it, reburning hydrocarbins, or whatever else it does..

Knowone said its going TO the intake.. it was explained that if its BEFORE the MAF, as in some aftermarket intakes, the tube coming off the head "may kick back some EGR gases, and mess with the MAF sensor..." Hence the reason the intakes that do have the EGR tube between the MAF and filter, include this little one-way filter to splice inline..

to update, I redid the intake with 2" rubber hose instead of PVC and no more CEL! Got my boosted top end back! Removing the old one there was a big difference... and it feels just like before now, minus that annoying CEL :)

Few questions

How do you connect the MAF to the intake and how do you connet the EGR to the intake?
The hole conversation between all of you guys is kind of confusing
Do you think you could paint that green intake? I think I might buy it but I'm affraid it wont fit but also that color.
Also what about a DIY that would be supper cool!!!!!!!!


P.S. I'm just learning this all know so please understand

Is there any difference in proformance between a short ram and a regular intake?
And if so why?

Just got mine all finished half ass'd (new filter+MAF bracket - stock tubing...) and even after resetting (pull batt cable) I'm getting the CEL. So I'm gonna go out and get/make a new ERG "section" for my intake and replace all stock components, I am hoping that this will solve the problem.

What's the difference between a cold air intake and a short ram intake?
Cold air intakes are usually placed in the fender well area, which brings in a cooler charged air from beneath the car (outside of the engine bay), which is denser and therefore creates more power. The piping is a lot longer than a short ram which means the power gains are not seen until the mid to higher RPM band. A short ram intake is located inside the engine bay and creates power with better response times than a cold air, however the air is not as dense, which means that it doesn't make as much power in the upper RPM region and makes less power overall.
