50 bucks cold air intake - Toyota Yaris Forums

Never said air or metal could cause catastrophic engine failure. Actually I never said anything about catastrophic engine failure. But engineering could. Water getting into your engine, etc.

Or just plain ol' worse gas mileage/performance due to a restrictive design or filter.

But hey, buy what you want, it's your car. I'd just rather spend the extra $ and buy the right part. Hell, you could make a cardboard shipping tube with a cone filter on the end for about $5 bucks.

I never wanted to buy this intake. But elaborate this for me. How different is this pipe, from other brand name ones? How different are the risks form this intake, and another?
