Question Cold Air Intake

I was just wondering, has anyone tried the Bomz Cold Air Intake kit for your 3dr or 4dr Yaris? I saw this kit on eBay and it is listed for only $57.99 plus free shipping and I wanted to know if it was any good. The title of listing says Cold Air Intake, but down below in the description, it says it is actually a Short Ram Intake. The seller has a very good rating and good reviews for his intakes, but what does everyone here think?

A pipe is a pipe. It may not be the best quality aluminum though. And if you do get either one of those kits, replace the filter with a K&N, AEM, or any other equivalent filters.

I did buy this kit (BOMZ) last week and installed it yesterday - it's a copy of the AEM kit but cheaper.

Once I got my hand on the AEM intake instructions, it was a piece of cake to install this.

Hope that helps! Can post pics too ...

Sweet. How does it sound? Have you noticed any horsepower gain? You should post the pics too, I'd like to see those.
