Cold Air Intake on a Budget

[ajae]

Hi Folks,

Thought I'd post this, but I don't recommend it if you are concerned about your warranty.

I purchased a NOS K&N filter (RU-1830) off e-bay that I thought was the right size, rounded up a short piece of ABS pipe and some silicon and I was going to make me a RAM intake on a budget! Total cost < $50.

Took about an hour from start to finish to set this up and my Yaris, she just had this growl that she never had before. Took her for a boot, and low and behold after 10 minutes, the engine light came on. A little too much air, not air tight? who knows, but since I was concerned about voiding warranties and all that, I put the stock setup back on and reset the computer (disconnected the batter for a minute, plus a couple of key fuses).

But the good news was there was a NOTICEABLE increase in power!http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/ima...es/thumbup.gif
