Cool Yaris Mk1 T Sport Mods

Recently purchased a Yaris Mk1 T Sport.
Does anyone have any suggestions on first performance mods? Or even cosmetic?
Cheers

Thanks for the reply mate.
You mean a cone filter right?

Yes cone type.

Although being a used car i started with basic maintenance . Flush all fluids and replace them with good quality synthetics. Engine , trans , etc.

Also good idea is to flush brake fluid and clutch fluid along with he engine coolant and power steering fluid .

unless you are close to or frequent the beach. increased air flow yes, but also particle size too.
If I were to do that mod, I would have to have the filter heavily oiled.
I just steer clear of those filters, as I prefer better filtration, even though I am torn for better flow.

Just had the engine serviced by a family friend but that's a good shout on flushing the other fluids! Will look into getting the cone filter. Do they increase performance at all or is it just really for the noise?

Not close to the beach...unfortunately. So may look into getting one..
