Before someone comes in here with a flamethrower I will say nicely that you really need to do a search before posting a question that has been asked hundreds of times already.
That said, the bottom line is, not much from any intake. 2-4 whp max, average, no matter what any vendor or ad says. Generally speaking a Cold Air Intake will give you a bigger gain mid-top end and a Short Ram will give you better throttle response and more on the low-midrange. After that it's all how much money you want to spend. Most name-brand intakes will have a good fit and come with all the right installation parts. A no-name off e-bay is a risk, so caveat emptor. |

If you do more research on the Weapon*R Secret Weapon intake, (the one with a smaller diameter intake tube running inside I'm assuming?) which they say yields more horsepower than a traditional CAI, they will provide to you a written disclaimer somewhere on that page that the their "twin barrel" technology or whatever they call it, doesn't work for that product. It's basically the same thing as an aFe intake, without all the fancy naming and so-called technology they've supposedly implemented.

And I must say it looks closer to stock than a chromed-out piece of piping.

K&N FTW !!! i love the K&N , but the AFE is similar so should also work well.

Having used both AFE and weapon R I can say that the AFE is built better and comes with a heat shield to prevent heatsoak.

Injen! never could complain about one of their intakes on any of my cars. They make a solid product and cold air intakes always make more top end power than a short ram but loses mid to low range (mainly due to heat soak)
I installed a fujita cai on a yaris LB and the butt dyno says great choice! |
