Cold Air Intake ?

[pegcityrs]

Does anybody know where I can get a Cold Air Intake for my 2006 Toyota Yaris RS (3-door) manual. I can't find a TRD listing for it, if someone knows please help !!! Cheers.

Haven't seen any yet, make your own and save a bunch of cash!

look at yariman's DIY here...

His is a short ram intake. Don't worry I'm sure there will be cold air intakes available soon enough. You could also write to injen, aem and companies like that to see if they will make one.

Well considering it's a 2006 model, you may have to wait for products to come out, because it's a relatively new model. The aftermarket has to catch up with it. Give it a month I'd say. May a bit longer... I bet they have prototypes already... They just haven't brought them out.

[why?]

Considering its been out in Japan for a while now, aftermarket parts will be coming soon.

Or fabricate your very own as well!

I'm sure AEM will modify their current offerings for the 1NZ-FE in the Echo Hatch, and the xB for the Yaris in the near future...

injen sucks. AEM is superior in quality to Injen

Injen does not suck. You're probably saying that because AEM has a larger fan base... Both are good product manufacturers. Don't say anything, if you don't know the truth...

i had both intakes on my is300. the injen gave me check engine lights, the tubing was much more narrow than the aem, aem intakes are usually CARB legal (but you dont' care), and the filter they give you is crap. if they both suck at something it's customer service.

assumptions are the mother of all fuck-ups...don't assume why i answered that way (although i could've been clearer the first time around)

Who cares. Wopdedoo. One car. That's like trying a girl out for the first time who's had sex more than you and saying they all suck just because you're not her first. :-P You're still wrong...

Leaner mixture gives more power?? Freeing up h orse power?? Go for a run around the block. Now tape your mouth closed and plug one nostrel and go for the same run. That's the same effect the engine has when breathing through a resticted air-intake. Get back to the basics gang, and richer mixtures give more power.

a leaner mixture will give more power, try running around the block with your mouth full of water & then try it without, which is easier?

the combustion of air & gasoline causes the rapid expansion of gases (fumes) that cause the piston to be moved down, the more gases in the camber already the less the have to be "created" by combustion. That's why Turbos & S/C can work on a un-tuned car, but to keep a Soitch AFR you have to add more fuel to match the amount of air. it all has to do with compression, more air in the camber, then it can compress, In short, a leaner Stoich mixture will give more power.

To each his own...

IMHO, all CAIs suck. I had one for my Pontiac Vibe, and all it did was make alot of noise (which despite popular belief, doesn't make it faster ). I don't care what the dynos say, if you can't feel the difference, it's not worth installing. I'm afraid when it comes to intakes, you get what you pay for, and that's why they're cheap (compared to the super/turbo charging options). I pulled mine back off and sold it.

they are designed to be used in conjuction with other mods (I/H/E) and with good tuning (AFR & Fuel Pressure) it will make a big difference.

Think about this, how much air can a straw flow compared to a garden hose? this is what you are doing, allowing for less restriction for the intake charge to contain more air & (in most cases) make more power.
