Give it some time.. All the major intake guys are testing & building now for the Yaris... Once they all get released, the prices are sure to come down a bit, and be competitive.

Wouldn't be too surprised.. it happends a LOT in the industry.

Take for example the new FRAM Boost intakes... they are renamed, recolored AEM products, made for FRAM. Even the instructions are the same, with the AEM logo's blacked out. FRAM just uses their filter, and rebrands the entire intake as their own.

So if they are paying AEM for the intakes to rebadge, Im guessing Toyota could/would do the same thing.
