I still don't understand I have the AEM CAI, which I assume is pretty much the same deal. I bought it second hand and I didn't get installation instructions or brackets for that matter. This is what mine looks like at the moment. I didn't really touch any of the hoses. I just ripped out my oem air box and bolted the AEM piping in. I left the hoses in the same connectors as my stock one. 1. This is the hose coming from the engine. 2. This is the hose coming from that black thing e.g. the 3rd picture. 3. The tube from the CAI was when I purchased it was blocked off and It's still blocked off. Please tell me my engine's not going to blow up?

wtf? Hit the pole and drove off? Must be stolen.. Upload the pictures to www.imageshack.us

This one's from the Grey Goose, full race pipe..

Dear TOCAU, Haven't updated my ride in awhile so here's the latest. I hate my dad, read more to learn why! :) TRD Sports Grille, TRD front strut bar and AEM CAI, all stolen from E-Gene's ride :D Monday my dad lectured me on modding the corolla, I got ****** off so I went out and did this. custom mild steel cat-back system fabricated and fitted @ Glenroy Exhaust. 2.25" piping, super-cat muffler with a downward bent dual tip. Here's a short clip of what it sounds like, couldn't fang it as much as I wanted. Dad came out later lecturing me about blowing the engine. I love the look on his face now :D Priceless. I think if he bothers me again I'm going headers/extractors. And here's what my car looks like at the moment.

Are brand names all that really important with an exhaust on a 1zz-fe? If I chose mild-steel instead of stainless for example is there really a difference?

haha yeah I saw this at the movies as well just a few days ago. Was watching 28weeks later. Funny as, one of those got nothing to do with ads. "Kid flying a kite then runs off a pier into the water...nokia..."

Welcome to the community brother! How's the ride with those pedders springs? My king springs are stiff as.

lol, might need to have a dyno run. At the rate I'm throwing performance mod's i might actually get 5kw! yay! LOL

It's mainly all the gangstuhs from the east-side man :D

The exhaust shop I went to called up X-Force and they apparantly have a set of headers/extractors for the 1zz-fe? Anyone had any experience with this header? He said it was going to cost me $450 alone without fitting. Also what are the gains? With a 2.25" cat-back system already installed?

I just got a 2.25" cat-back system fabricated and fitted. With just the CAI my car was feeling laggy down low. Now it feels like the car can breathe much more easier and the engine rev's out quicker.

Speaking of which have you guys/gals seen this? Note: Following link is an adult movie series website, if you are under 18 years of age do not enter. http://www.whorecraft.net/

You guys still alive?

What about these babies? black with a polished lip? VIP look? Ozzy Racing RS-GT

I'd be down for this. But how do I pay? Want me to transfer the funds to your account Voy?

IMO all those chrome, altezza tail lights make the car look cheap. Why not go for JDM tail lights?

LOL, feel sorry for you, hopefully no one will rip your head off. Use the 'search' button my friend. This same question was gone over yesterday.

I was interested in some as well, but I have no Pay-Pal account or credit card. :( I know Brandon (BigBum) bought them off ebay as well. Maybe PM him?

I get frustrated when my girlfriend pays for a meal or a movie ticket, especially my end. I feel as if she thinks I'm broke or can't afford stuff, but mainly the way I've been brought up I guess. What I see from my parents and freakin' movies. lol Anyone else get like that?

ALBUMS THAT HAVE CHANGED MY LIFE: 1. The Killers - Hot Fuss (Woke me up from my R&B/Hip-Hop nightmare). This was the milestone that got me into Alternative Rock. 2. VA-Death Row Presents - A Hip Hop History (Showed me that it's not lame to listen to gangstuh rap). The classics were and are still the best, now it's all record label created puppets. 3. The All New T.F.U Mixed CD by Orkestrated a.k.a. Adam Bartas and Dean Paps. (I just discovered this recently, where have I been without dirty dirty electro? Music which I can out dance my girl friend to.) LOL

Hey dude looking good. Freakin' exhaust doesn't fit, funny how out of everyone posting replies to that thread only a handful said it wouldn't fit. Just get a custom exhaust.

Finally had time to get my sportivo catback fitted. Went to Glenroy Exhaust, It couldn't be estimated if the cat-back would bolt on or not. He had to try fit it for him to know if it will bolt on or not. He fit the mid section in o.k. then when he tried bolting in the muffler, there was a problem straight away. The connection between the end of the mid section and start of the muffler didn't fit. The piping was out by atleast 10cm. So you would probably need to cut abit of the mid section off. Then there's problems with the muffler aswell, as it is smaller than the sedan version. Tried to explain it with a simple picture, hope it makes sense. picture is only an example. So without modifications it will NOT fit. Waisted $50 for cutting and welding back my original exhaust, but atleast now everyone knows it won't fit without modification. Thanks Marcus, I should of listened to you from the start, now I know your not like half the guys on this forum. :D

haha, i was just about to say the same thing, you might be lucky enough to buy it off another member. E-Gene and Mintos (i think) sold their pairs.

drop it like its hot! Coming together nicely man sportivo kit and rims FTW!
