I currently has a HKS air filter tobe installed into my car. But the only problem i am having now is who can do a great piping job for the filter?

Where can i buy the CAI without buying the filter? I mean thats impossible. Custom tubing ofcourse will be expensive. Currently i have my eye on K&N Typhoon air filter kit. But thats about 600 dollar HERE!?

You can get an AEM CAI for $230 to your door and an Injen for $335 these are proven to give power and have got the R&D to support this, thats cheap enough in my view to toss the filter if you want and get a better one. Thats my 2 cents. K&N $600 cheez were are you getting you quotes mate?.

The KN Typhoon are specially made for corolla t-sport which is the identical corolla to our spotivo here. The filters u guys mentioned are for toyota matrix over the US which is a wagon. So i am no so sure they have the identical engine bay as corolla hatches although the XRS model has the Celica engine installed.

I think KN puts more efford in doing RnDs. At least the price u paid for comes with a Drychargers to protects ur engine. I also checked the price from Ebay, 168 USD(220AUD) without shipping. And they come in sexy red as well!

ur still right, these power gain stuff are very subjected to cars. Some gets good performance out of it and some gets minor performance.

I am just looking for something that is easy to get it on and run. My objectives now is to get a good tube for my HKS filter. And its aint cheap to do so...

Can i have some contacts for the shops u all always visit?? This would help alots!

if you want something quick to get it going grab an intake off ebay and put the hks filter at the end of it... simple.

Itll cost more for u to get a custom made intake than to just buy one which has proven performance, there is nothing special about a hks pod anyways, we find that the blitz and injen filters work a lot better.

      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.

      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.

      Turboed Corolla Overbuilt?

      that engine will be fine, the rods are the main thing to be concerned about. The 2860 is a decent turbo for the 1zz but in this day and age I'd go for a G25-550. The injectors might be on the small side, we run DW1000's. You need a full length injector, the shorter injectors with adaptors like ID1050x dont fit the 1zz head. You don't need an aftermarket intake manifold, if you do go down that path, avoid the CNC innovations unit, it's garbage. Do the boost control with a MAC valve and control it with the aftermarket ECU of your choice, I use Link stuff on most of my builds with the G4x Storm as the minimum. I also wire a fuel pressure sensor and oil pressure sensor to the ECU in my installs. Use a decent intercooler, the better cores (ARE, PWR, Garrett, Vibrant, Plazmaman, Hypertune) work a lot better than the chinese stuff like Aeroflow. a 450x250-300 fits fairly well with custom end tanks to route the cooler pipes through next to the radiator Don't forget about the clutch and gearbox. These days I like the Uniclutch twinplate, Above 300whp you'll want to think about upgrading the 3rd and 4th gears in the box also with the SSC (Hollinger) gear set and install an LSD of your choice. If you're going to give it a hard time, you'll also want an oil cooler. I like the HKS thermostat type sandwich plates and setrab or mocal oil coolers with -10 speedflow fittings/lines (Chinese AN fittings neck down to a lot smaller internal diameter in their bends, not great for flow) You'll also want to think about brakes, Celica or Sportivo front calipers will bolt on with sportivo discs as a starting point. To have somewhere like Tunehouse do the work you'll want to budget somewhere between 20-40K

      Camry Touring 2010 Fuel consumption 15.2L/100km. Normal?

      I did the mathematics myself regarding costs vs benefits for fuel injector cleaner. I have changed from 91ULP to 95PULP and 98PULP. Price difference can be about 13 -20 cents. Compared to 91ULP, Premium quality fuel should have a better quality additive package designed to have superior engine cleaning capabilities so the engine can perform at their best.

      "Fuel injector cleaner is a waste of money" Only if you by the cheap crap if you use LiquMolly a German Product it does work and you won't waste your Money.
