Those are really nice looking wheels. I think they'd go well with a black Yaris

I get 4hp gain from the Tanabe Concept G exhaust. Things really sounded better once i dropped in the Blitz air filter that i got from one of the sponsors here on the forum. Almost sounds like a g35 after it passes 3000 or 4000rpm hehe

4hp isn't all that much. So with the exhaust and Blitz what was the total HP? You say "blitz air filter", so you have the whole intake correct?

I'm goin AEM for sure on the cold air intake. Tanabe for exhaust, not sure about the header yet.

Nope just the air filter replacement.....it replaces that black plastic box with a cone type air filter. hehe. I don't have the total hp increase from the intake and exhaust because i dont dyno my car. Reason I know how the exhaust is because of the tanabe people.

Yes, I'm goin with AEM for sure. Have you heard any feedback on AEM or is there a better cold air intake out there? I just trust the name and the product. I'm picky when it comes to stuff like that. I like to get all of the same brand on stuff. Tanabe, AEM, PIAA....

I heard it's alright. I was just curious cuz the air filter and CAI doesn't have much of a difference xcept for the piping reaching all the way down compare to the air filter replacing the stock one.
