Cold air intake?
Anyone on here running a cold air intake? Wondering if it's worth the money on the yaris or just a waste

It makes a difference. But it also makes for some better induction noise.

Unless you plan on doing the wholle induction system (intake, throttle, and manifold) than I it's kind of a waste.
Unless of course you want extra induction noise with no real extra power.

The Yaris' stock intake is already placed to take in cooler air. So that's not really an issue. On my Yaris, I've just put in a drop-in replacement AfE filter, which provides higher airflow and is also washable. Then I removed the carbon filter from the air box as well. It gives the car a little more go, and a bit more growl.

just like tarkus said..stock box is already cool enough...go with throttle body or manifold...had the intake but took them off, no real gain...i went with 1zz throttle body with custom piping thay matches the exact size of t.b and intake box

It's absolutely hilarious on a supercharged 1NZ with a 1ZZ throttle body. Lots of loud supercharger noises and some serious HP gains to boot. On an otherwise stock engine, you may see a few HP gained.

I have a cold air intake on my Yaris, I think it mostly just adds kind of a growl throttle noise. Performance gains are minimal if any.
If you want to get a mod and actually feel a slight difference go with exhaust headers, you'll feel that more than the CAI.

I have a K&N typhoon air intake. I can say that you a very very nice sound with the vvti. No more drop between gear shift and a better acceleration as the car is more responsive.

I must also add that a Tanabe high flow exhaust helps also on the performance. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

you shaved 2 seconds off 0-62mph with an intake and a muffler? that's the most amazing thing i've heard this week! i've seen people pay $5,000 to accomplish this, who knew all they needed was an intake and a muffler....

I've done a before and after test with new tires, lightweight alloys and air intake. The car was stock before. Before with winter tires and stock air intake the best i could do was 11.1 sec After with new sticky summer tires and aftermarket air intake the best i could do was 11.3 sec. So after i did the mods my 0-62 times were worse than before. So i guess my winter tires stick well enough to put the power down and it all comes down to the launch and your shifting. You can scrape off some time with good shifting. But with a bad launch my times are always in the 12-13 sec range. My engine is the 1.3l 2SZ-FE Last edited by DiCaprio; 06-16-2017 at 07:40 AM. |
