Cold air intake for 1.6

[ianopium]

1. i've been looking at cold air intakes for a while. I've looked at injen, K&M, TRD, etc and i was wondering which one would give me the most extra horses.


2. TC's come with a short ram intake right? I've heard that for some short rams you have to take off the front left wheel to get it out?

if you have a tc it comes with a 2.4l. did you swap it to a 1.6?
It does not come with a short ram.
Short ram does not need to be taken out through the wheel well only cai's do.
Hope this helps?

haha, i guess i'm sort of confused, thanks

i think AEM is supposed to give the most gains as far as intakes go. But i could be mistaken.
But the difference between hp in intakes is unnoticeable so get whichever one you think you like the best lol

Yeah, i know it's not gonn give me much but it's a starting point, i just got my car a few months ago and i haven't really done anything to it yet

[lucytheshedevil]

intake is a good start dont get me wrong im just the difference between the brands wont be noticeable

except sound, Injen is the coolest sounding IMO.

thats what im getting come spring

Yeah, injen is the only other CAI on the trd website, and i'd rather order from them than just some random website

i just got an injen cai. it sounds amazing. paired with a good exhaust... and ur ballin. easy install... yes you need to remove the front left tire to install. and dont just do a short ram go full cai for most torque and hp gains
