Burning smell with CAI - Toyota Yaris Forums

AlexNet0 · 12-16-2008, 03:08 PM

Heyy, I just bought a knockoff AEM CAI and installed it last night, the install went fine and I took it around the block a few times and everything seems great.

however when I really step on it and go through 1st 2nd 3rd, when I let off I get this burning smell that goes away after a minute or so, I was just wondering if this is something "normal" during the "?break in?" of the intake?

No hurry, as it seems to be fine otherwise, just wondering if anyone else has noticed this and if it is something I should be worried about.

Other than that, this is a great forum!

Thanks alot
