Stock Air Filter
OK this is sort of a random question but does everyone else's stock air filter look like this?
It looks like someone poured marshmellow fluff into my air intake. How does the engine breath through that crazy thing?
Now that my tC is 1000miles old I want to put in a K&N or TRD filter in since I have heard such good things about them. Hope fully I can get a little better city gas mileage with it.

Mine used to look like that, but I just put in the new TRD air filter. I couldn't believe my car was trying to get air through that thing. Geez... It looks huge! I could've just stuffed my air box with gauze and done the same thing.
Anyway, the part number for the TRD Air Filter is 00602-17801-010. It costs $60.66, and never needs to be replaced...just cleaned every 15,000 mi. or so. It's a bit expensive, but my baby's worth it.

Just took out my original air filter from my tC a few days ago and put in a drop in K&N filter...
My original filter looks kind of like yours.. a little cleaner, I only got around 400 miles on mine.
Can't say I can feel any different in performance... I am still breaking in my car... I bought the K&N so that I can wash and reuse it. Original filter cost quite a bit, I guess...
How's the TRD drop in filter? I almost bought the TRD.. But I have been using K&N for most of my car before... and decided to go with K&N again...
