i'm planning to keep the car NA. No pod filter yet.

I've got a 02 Camry V6. 3.0 L Engine. What size piping or what do you guys suggest i do with my exhaust? I already have a Borla muffler. All of the exhaust is stock right now.

Biloxi, Mississippi " Hurricane ravaged area " :(

That is with Cold air induction pod filter :)

oh ok. well just saying. The point is, in an intake system. The filter makes a miniscule difference. Just find the one that filters the best. You'll lose some HP and you could make your engine last longer.

The rear sway bar will prevent body roll and create less understeer. There are three settings on the TRD one. Two street and One Competition. You can adjust it to how you like.

I will be changing the paper air filter to a K&N panel.......and maybe altering the collection of air. Looking at the existing snorkel it also channels to a chamber in the guard behind the fog lamp.

Is air being collected from this chamber....and maybe the hot air comes out of the snorkel....or both?

Can anyone enlighten me on these split pipes before the main intake?

im not entirely sure why that chamber thing is there either...

but i know that all the snorkel pipes connected to it, are intake pipes, the one behind the foglight and the one next to the battery, are all taking air in ;)

these pipes probably could be repositioned better i guess

From what i've seen in my Camry. The Snorkel intake goes in > splits into two > the top opens at high RPMs by ACIS or some vacuum thing > the bottom goes to a vacuum box or this white box > filter > into TB. It only takes in air from one place which is the snorkel.

hey,

just wondering whether a K&N panel filter for a V6 camry sportivo will make any difference at all? and how much it costs.

Hi Kelvin

It will be about $110 and give you about 2% gain in power approx. The added benefit is that it will save you money in the long run as you never need to buy another filter just service it yourself ;) .

I have CAI (cold air induction) which gives about 7-10% more power. But that is another step in the process depends on what your aim is

7-10% ? there is no way unless you are highly turboed or have some crazy mods. 2% is what they claim on K&N but if you're switching from a clean paper filter to a K&N. You won't feel a difference at all. It's all in your head and there were tests done. You can even check out the magazines. There was a dyno done with the K&N filter and NO filter...........it was only a miniscule difference. 1 HP gain. whoopty doo.

if you're lucky 1-2hp

you will not GAIN (maybe not even a single hp) heaps from just a CAI. if you want power you gotta spend heaps more $$$ :P

really?

tell that to the guys at the last dyno day then, including myself..

stock STIVO 102-103KWs

Stivo with JUST CAI 110Kws

thats a 7kw diff.. which is huge on a highly tuned NA engine

I really doubt that. Maybe if the conditions were right you could do that....say.. Were ya'll blowing air at the cai? Was it a cold day? Even then the 7kw difference only happens at a few seconds. where those dyno charts =/
