looking for a CAI.. - Toyota Yaris Forums

fiia · 03-13-2010, 03:42 PM

I've been researching online different cold air intakes for the yaris..
so far I've narrowed it down (based on price and reviews) to :
AEM on microimage for $250
or K & N 69 series for $288.

Does anyone have any experience with either of these or another suggestion?

I also found soemthing on ebay from some no-name brand (HPS) for about $160. I couldn't find any research on the brand, so my gut tells me not to trust it.

they're all the same.

buy a used one with a decent filter for cheaper than new...they're lifetime setups any way...buy a cleaning kit or some are even dry filters now like i have (afe).

either way, no matter what anyone tells you...it's all on the style you like. they all pretty much give the same power +-like 5%

to me, 5% is not worth spending another 150-200 on a brand name or higher end unit. check the for sale section, they're always on there and mostly under 100

Get an INJEN. I love mine. They are dyno tested and about $215
