Thats exatly what i want to know. If you look at pics below of the sc kit and the install on a early show car for trd, they use the stock box at same connection point with just a k&n drop-in filter. If a cai was at same connection point it would but none look like they do. But no fret im sure an aftermarket will adapt, when ever the damn thing comes out.

hey NY_BSP_Scion... Is that the TRD Supercharger on that engine?

PunkInDrublic

Any comment on the fact that it states that the Injen CAI is for the 5 spd only?

NY_BSP_Scion

Yeah it was a car trd comissioned and brought to shows to get the hipe up about the supercharger as a tC option.

Fm_Tc_In_Ma

what is an F1 and why would you need one?



Yes, im a newb.

slammed

FI not F1. Stands for forced induction i.c. turbo, supercharger.

I want to see what the black looks like.

No one will succeed. Its not like they can change it that much. All it is is a pipe and a filter on the end.

I ordered my CAI today from www.ultrarev.com $250.56 no shipping charges. One question though...... how hard is it to change it from short ram to cold air if i wanted ???????????????anyone know

Diluvium

they claim it gains 12hp/9lb... and this is coming from Injen, the people who made it...

now i can believe Import Tuner magazines dyno..

theres no way you can gain 12hp from an intake, usually 5-8hp gain atleast..


Injen is a great company and id rather get injen's intake then K&N's but AEM over both of them...


i really do want to change to a CAI tho, my header is really heating up the engine bay..


anyone want to swap with me? K&N (any CAI) for a WEAPON-R??? PM me

If thats an issue for you, try this: http://www.autobarn.net/exinwrbyth.html
It doesnt do much for looks (although i love the look when installed) but will do wonders for lowering the heat produced by removing the heat shield and installing headers.

The rest of thier products are here: http://www.thermotec.com/products/full/full.html

Diluvium

did you feel anything when you installed it? it looks like a 4 armed MUMMY

NY_BSP_Scion

Ive never installed it. Friend installed it on his and although he didn't notice much hp gains he did notice a big improvment in engine bay heat.

insanetc

i deff love the injen cai/sr.....the heat wrap is good for racin but it takes away the look of the headers....when showing...

NY_BSP_Scion

He's right....if your going to show most think of it as a negative. If your never going to show and looking for improvement in under hood heat try the header wrap and this http://www.thermotec.com/products/full/14500/14500.html and the induction system will not be affected at all (but header should be enough, reduces heat by 70%). Like insantec said they are used for race purposes because of heat build-up. When headers installed, im planning on the black thermal wrap on mine. Not all that interested in showing.

insanetc

see i show...i just had a show sat...i have like 3 more this month...its a busy month but....i want the headers for show but also fo rthe power...and the judges deff dont like the wrap on show cars...

NY_BSP_Scion

Yeah my friend tried to show and they HATED It. I felt bad for him because I happen to like the look.

btw: good luck on shows coming up.

insanetc

hey thanx alot..yah this show this weekend was ok it was the first for the season...(import wars at new england dragway)...listen to this....i have done tons of shows for the past 3 years and this is the first...i got dq at the first show..damn it...because i had my car running..i guess last year one of the judges had a necklace with a badge on the end of it leaned into a kids motor to judge it and got his badge stuck in the fan...now he is the idiot so they have to punish all of us...but i learned my lesson and the next show ill keep my car off....next weekend may 28 is a HUGE show called street warrioerz...so i cant wait..

NY_BSP_Scion

Thats great (about the judge). I'm in denver until june, maybe when im back i could hook up to mass and check one out.

insanetc

yah sounds good ther are tons ill give you a quick run down of the shows.....may 28..street warriorz.....june 18 import wars....aug 6 import wars...oct 8 import wars...and tons of people go to these shows tehy have races and obviously show but its all day long at tons of fun...

Shifty

So is this loud as the K&N or quieter possibly? Any word on that?

Chimmy3

don't you have to be REALLY careful wrapping headers? otherwise you might break something?
