I recently put the Simota CAI on... I had a 2.25" exhaust and 4-2-1 extractors before, and I only noticed a slight increase in power towards the mid-to-top range... My engine hesitates under 3,000RPM but goes pretty well after that... one big difference is the noise though... it's beefier and growlier, if that makes any sense...

My exhaust fix that hesitation below 3000rpm.

what did you end up with atw figure when car was stock?

just curious i might be sighting this CAI too high for gains. i realise no real gains can be achieved unless you complete the puzzle.

more air intake means you need to push it out more. hence extractors/muffler.

i've had a look at extractors not much for 1zzfe... got any views on what's good?

i see you have a wildcat which i've never heard before.

As for extractors, you can grab Wildcat or Hurricane. Maybe Genie got one aswell. My header is 3x the size of standard, you can check on my garage photo, so this is not bolt on.

Stock at wheels was 75kw.

I do not know how much gain i get from the CAI alone, because the cai and exhaust is meant to be working each other, but you cannot go wrong with CAI. Don't expect sky hi gain, but any gain from CAI its not a lie, it is a true gain. 7kw-10kw is possible.

i just bought my AEM for $392, don't know if i need to pay the import tax - still less expensive than other brands (except simota).

bruce from trdsales qouted me $490 including shipping

blitz from autobarn and ignition-x too costly $500-700

once i acquire and fit this part, i will dyno it with different filters (luckily my freind knows a guy at autobarn) so he might be able to supply me with different pod filters - simota, k&n, kks and my stock AEM. see who makes a real difference

will keep u guys up to date

thanks for the reply mate, i wasn't really expecting sky high gains.

i have experienced CAI on previous cars but toyota is a different car, i loved the vvti story but i was actually disappointed with end performance. there's a flat spot in second.

i rev 1st gear change at 6000rpm-6100 but as soon as 2nd engages there's no pull basically flat. i've raced a few other ricers and i was impressed with the mr lancer that had CAI + full exhaust who pulled away from me mid 2nd although i recouped at about 3rd (maybe he missed a gear :P ).

when CAI installed did that get rid of the flat feeling?

Shouldn't be feeling flat in second if your changing up at 6100rpm. My tyres chirp when I do that.

To be honest, I am not sure about flat spot from 1st-2nd, but all I can say is ever since the car got CAI (I got it after exhaust), the car becomes alive. My fav is 2nd gear actually. So meaty.

Anyhow, I have a dyno figure here in case you have not seen it.

as far as i know.. there is no flat spot from 1st to 2nd..

though his responce is not as much as blitz intake.. but still id say his car has good power gain thru the cai...

Had no idea bro. Either one you cannot go wrong anyway. Yeah the AEM is cheaper, and probably that makes it a better and valuable buy than TRD. No one complains about which CAI they have.

For what I can remember, AEM gives better tourqe while TRD gives better HP.

      Hi everyone, new member to the group and owner driver of a nifty little Toyota Sprinter Trueno XZ, now this was my cousins car, I bought it off him and after various drives, I have come to the decision that this needs alot of love. Now I am wondering if its worth putting my time and money into doing this certain make n model up or should I just buy a different car to do up? I am not very car-inclined so I really don't know a lot. Any opinions would be very helpful Thankful!

      Android auto

      OK. Does any of Toyota's advertising material mention Android Auto? If so then kick up a stink, with Toyota management, about misrepresentation and false advertising, reminding them of the hefty fines. Herb

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.

      Android auto

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.
