CAI or Exhaust first? - Toyota Yaris Forums

absenter · 03-27-2007, 06:28 PM

So aesthetically I've added or have ordered everything I want/need for my LB(pix comeing soon). Next I'm moving on to performance. I know that I will be purchasing the AEM CAI and the Tanabe Concept G exhaust. Does anyone recomend a particular order to go in? Does it really matter? Which one will I see more immediate HP gain from?

Intake will give you better gains. Exhaust is mostly looks and sound.

YarisGuy · 03-27-2007, 06:56 PM

I would probably go with intake first.

Awesome, that's exactly what I needed to know. I'm pretty dead set on the AEM. Does anybody know something I don't that would change my mind?

thank ya!

How much HP gain did you get from it though? Anyone know what the gain is from AEM?

The Envy Performance CAI actually reminds me of a CAI unlike the TRD and AEM. I say that only because the Envy picks up the cold air from the bottom.

I'm not saying the AEM and TRD are not CAI, just saying the Envy one reminds me of some of the old school CAI. Like around the time AEM came out

As for gains I don't know but aren't they all relatively the same?

absenter · 03-27-2007, 07:37 PM

Yeah, that's what I've heard. Right around 3-4hp. Or something like that. I like them Envy though. I might have to look into that a little closer. AEM has just been around forever and one I can trust ya know?

AEM and TRD are the same INTAKE just different stickers on them, but I would to CAI first. And I would not waist your money on a axle back exaust, it is just choked down, you will see much better gains by going to your local exaust shop and having them run 2.25 from the cat back get a decent muffler like magnaflow or something and a nice tip, all that will cost about the same as an axle back exaust and you will see much better gains from it

There's a new vendor in YW offering a killer price on the Fujita CAI.... There is also a brand new Weapon R short ram intake on the classified section for $200.

Both are great options.

Good luck!
