Yaris TS Performance Parts Compatibility Thread

[CASTREX]

I didn't wanted to go for a K&N replacement filter since there is not much gains other than not having to change the filter any more.

First I went for a "semi" Short ram intake.
To do it I removed the hole filter plastic box assembly keeping only the OE plastic housing for the MAF sensor.
The I just installed a High Flow filter directly to the MAF housing and made a small bracket to hold the intake in place. I used a HKS mushroom filter since I really like the look of those ...

Then, a few weeks ago a reputable US intake manufacturer FUJITA announced the release of their new CAI (Cold Air Intake) for the US Scion xD car. (Toyota IST in Japan).

For those who don't know, the Scion xD is based on the Yaris chassis and the US version comes equipped with the 2ZR-FE 1.8L engine.
So I took the chance and ordered one of these to try it on the Yaris TS.

The result: Is and ALMOST fit..! The only part that doesn't fit 100% is a bracket used to secure the pipe that is a little shorter than it should for our cars.
Other than that, the Scion xD CAI works perfectly on our cars. See below a picture of the cai installed on my TS.

I found that the bracket is not required so it won't prevent the correct function of the intake. The air filter is relocated right below the headlight and it sit there really snugged. So there pipe is not moving around...

I have had the intake installed for a few weeks with no problem at all.
