I'm not too sure if the Yaris one will fit the echo ? Sorry if I'm showing my true noobness about these cars. If it does for I'll sell it, if not than I wouldn't want to deceive you.

I would have to see the pictures. If I can mount it to the throttle body I'm sure I could make it work. Anyone got any input?

You'll probably have to hack it to bits to get it to fit properly.

Probably be easier to use a drop-in K&N filter and cut one side off the box where the air filter goes. That will give you pretty much the same result.
@bluevitz-rs shouldn't that be the Scion xA that's virtually identical to the Echo hatchback? Sent from my LG-D801 using Tapatalk Last edited by tarkus; 03-07-2016 at 08:27 PM. |

So just hacking open the original air box and replacing the filter? I think a trip to the bone yard is due. Thanks for the input everyone.

Just a heads up. Keeping the original air box no mater what you do to it won't net you any gains. I speak from personal experience.
Way back when my car was pretty new I went to the drag strip with some guys, one had an echo identical to mine. He had nothing but the AEM CAI. I had a header and Borla axle back. I'd beat him on the tree every time and then he'd start gaining on me and beat me to the line. Didn't matter what I did to the airbox, nothing would help. I even tried leaving it propped open with no filter for one pass. |

The stock rubber tube connecting the air box to the TB and the velocity stack inside the air box cause restriction. I later changed mine for the AEM CAI for an xB and noticed a huge gain.
I'm not trying to blow smoke up your a$$. I've done everything to the Echo's 1NZ and know what works and what doesn't. |
