    shopping around for a new air intake. I installed a K&N open end air filter and I regret it. My check engine like comes on every couple of weeks due to the mass air flow sensor picking up dust particals. These filters suck I do not recommend if you drive off road often. I don't know what I was thinking installing this.

    Does anyone have a favorite intake they use And love? I'm in the market for a new one

    OEM ONLY.... the rest are a ploy, actually reduce HP and filter less. Stock intake is already a cold air intake.

    I know I messed up. I called the dealership and they want like 700 for a whole new system. I might shop around for a used one. Maybe go to pick n pull or something. If you hear anyone selling theirs let me know

    Do you think a 2013 oem intake would fit on a 2007? I found one I want to buy. I don't see any reasons why it wouldn't. Right?

    What these guys say. Stock is just as good or better than the others you'll spend a fortune on.

    No worries Sir Lord, I've seen it before and I like it a lot. Gave me the idea to figure out my own.

    My original intention was for the trd a.c. but after toyota discontinued them and the the dealership price goughing everyone I said the heck with it. I'd spend the money on something that is exactly fast from the factory namely the 05-06 GTO and boost that instead.
