Mechanical Difference Between Years - Toyota Yaris Forums

Betrivent · 08-18-2009, 06:51 PM

Okay, I've asked a couple people but I want a LOT of opinion on this.

Is it ABSOLUTELY TRUE that there are NO mechanical difference between an 06 and an 07 Yaris?

Reason being I might be getting a CAI and I need to know if it'll work flawlessly with my 06.

It's not a matter of opinion it's a matter of fact?

and the fact is, the metal and engine between the model years is the same! Only differences are some plastic parts (bumpers and lights) and some of the "extra" functions (airbags, ABS, whatever)

And, having a pre-09 car, you have even less to worry about since most of the aftermarket parts were designed for these anyway...

should be the same diameter throttle body and MAF housing, those are the things that matter when buying an intake. why is this a poll?
