My Tagalog reading skills is horrible (can only understand it when I'm spoken to), but a drop in K&N filter will not give you any performance increase. It's still in the same restrictive intake box with the same carbon trap filter. It's usually only good for being a one time purchase filter that can be reused.

As for water, as long as you don't drive through a flooded area, you should be good. You can also get a hydroshield to prevent any drops of water from being sucked in (won't protect you if you try to drive through a flooded road). Mine works great. I don't bother to "bag" my filter when I wash my car.

1.3L and 1.5L is different

in addition to above..

The header for 1.3L 2nz-fe yaris is not compatible with the one from US. US header are for 1.5L 1nz-fe in majority.

Unless, you have the yaris 1.5L sporty edition here in ksa, then its a bolt-on.

I don't know why in these country, they used to sell small displacement engines cars eventhough the gas is cheaper than water

Me? I have the K&N SRI (Typhoon). I just wrapped it with some heat reflective material since the pipe is black and made of aluminum (which gets heat soaked easily).









The pipe wrapped:

Find your filters measurements and look up the part number here: http://www.knfilters.com/search/wrap.aspx

Be sure you are looking under drycharger and not precharger filters/wraps.

Then you can find that K&N part number on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss...ry%2Caps%2C302

Yes, I did notice a difference if how hot it feels. Before the wrap, touching the pipe was sometimes unbearable. I can now keep my hand on the pipe after I wrapped it.

performance-wise? Not really sure since I've always had HEAVY rims. lol

what's great about these guys is that they can make custom wraps!

I believe this will be beneficial for our radiators, evaporators and for some, intercoolers... so those poor bugs don't get stuck in between the fins and die a horrid death...
