Carbon fiber intake - Page 2 - Toyota Yaris Forums

Here's a picture of my (dirty) engine bay. The rubbing areas make the intake twist a bit towards the fan, which I guess is actually not so bad?

Also, the steel base could be a bit shorter to avoid further rubbing at the front:

yeah for those two parts i put some padding to cushion the intake a little. perhaps
buy a braille battery too

? i'd highly recommend putting some sort of padding though.

That is correct, one left only. I have more stuff coming from Simota
soon but this is it for the CF intakes for a long time. They are really nice
but not cheap.

good luck with your sales kargoboy.

-I'm trying to upload the video for this intake, but running into technical difficulties lol

808_Yaris · 05-07-2009, 04:43 PM

808_Yaris · 05-08-2009, 01:00 AM
