ok its been a huge pet peeve of mine but... It's header.... not headers.... this car has 4 cylinders.... it has one set of Header. headers are for v6 and v8 or hemis or whatever. but not for 4 cylinder cars.


anyways... now that thats out of my system... The weakest point of the engine is the rods. with excessive boost they will snap.

there are many other paths as opposed to forced induction. For the people who are gonna be using this car as their daliy driver but just want a bit of quickness...

lightened crank pulley
milled head
intake
exhaust
header
maybe a stroker kit in the future?
fidanza 8 lbs flywheel
bored out TB...... Can be done at www.maxbore.com

stuff like this. then u can run without boost and keep it safe by running N/A

good list.

it may not add horsepower, but at least for the hatchback, I would add a tach to that list.

everybody so do you think that AEM is the best intake for the yaris

[falkor_99]

well i got one and its awesome, nice sound and so far it looks like i am getting better MPG

I have the Weapon R in both of our cars and it sounds great, they actually provide a dyno sheet (does anyone else?) AND they have a "RAM AIR" kit.

OK, so the RAM AIR kit is a tube and some hose-clamps that mounts to the end of the filter and the hose goes somewhere outside the engine to pick-up "cooler air" and send it spiritedly to the intake... but it does not pressurize the intake since it is still breathing (mostly) from the sides. See my review.

I have 12k miles on my AEM intake. Since I'm taking my car overseas I decided to change plugs and do all sorts of preventive maintenance just in case...well I was very surprised to find the filter looking almost new. I was a little worried about the location but the wheel well provided great protection, so there's no doubt to me this is a great product

+1 Weapon R here too. Cheap price and sounds fab.

WEAPON R is garbage and their price reflects it......

I got a good deal on a gently used AEM intake from a member that needed the cash. Before that I did consider the Weapon R and Fujitsu.

Let us know how you really feel. Way to add to the topic at hand. Typical from you.

Like Vanderkitten said does anyone else even offer a dyno chart backing up their product?

I didnt like my Weapon R either. From the fit, finish, and not so noticable performance gain, I removed mine and sold it.

As for dyno sheets, big deal. Any manufacturer can "tweek" dyno numbers to make their product shine. Unless you are doing your own dyno testing before and after testing, take manufacturers claims with a grain of salt.
