i wouldnt waste my money on a SRI! they wont give you extra hp. if you like it loud then go and get it. CAI is probably better.

If anything I'd like to see some dyno numbers between a sri and a cai...On this car I doubt that you would notice the difference between the two.

I agree.

I've owned a few eBay intakes in my time and I can say the hardware usually isn't very good, and the filters are junk. We actually have one on our other car (1998 Civic). The piping is beginning to oxidize, and the rubber bits are starting to desinigrate.

If I bought an eBay intake for my car again, I'd chuck the craptastic filter and get a real K&N, too.

I made my own, on a different car, using two pieces or polished tubing, one urethane adapter for the TB end, and a K&N filter. Total cost: less than $75, and it lasted forever, looked great, and made a huge difference in sound and acceleration. The only drawback to that plan as far as the Yaris is concerned: figuring in those vac bungs
