last week I was pricing intake tubes and was searching part numbers on Amazon. Stumbled upon this listing, had the right picture and part numbers, but no reviews.

obviously the price is wrong but figured I’d take the $10 gamble and see what shows up. Sure enough it’s the right part.

I’m sure they’ll change the price eventually but figured it was too good not to share

 

Why not…

 

The red one is even cheaper lol

I bought a black one. lol

 

Ugh… could’ve saved a dollar! I wanted black for an oem look but great find! I know a lot of other people do the red more

 

I bought a black one as well, even though I have a S&B intake lol

 

Whats retail on something like this? Any point in putting this on if you're stock/no issues?

 

They are $200 normally. And are just good for giving you more induction noise really.

 

any point? Not really…. I hope it comes with a sticker

 

I’ve researched intake tubes available for our trucks for a long time. K&n and afe make ones that come with their drop in filters for somewhere in the 200 dollar range. HPS and mishimoto make a silicone tube like this

I’ve put intakes on many cars, different brands. Speaking just about a 3rd gen Tacoma, they are all cool looking noise makers. Any filter other than oem or wix your gambling sending unwanted damaging stuff into your engine

the intake tubes you are keeping a well designed oem filter housing and oem fitment but deleting the massive resonator that takes up half the engine bay, and gain some cool performance sound

those things are not worth $200 that’s why I never got one. It’s definitely worth 10 though!


I had a afe dry pro s intake on a 2nd gen before that I stupidly paid like 500 for back in the day. This sound reminds me of that. It’s really nice

 

it doesn’t not come with a sticker, or at least mine didn’t lol.
Tube and 2 clamps were in the box

I was just thinking that, I guess the sticker was the $190 difference

 

No sticker?

Order cancelled..

 

Of course they can’t ship to Canada even though they quote a shipping price and ships from Amazon lol why did I even try. Sick deal that’s like $300 here

 

Are you saying my AFE dry washable lifetime filter is not going to protect my engine with one of these? $9.94 just to destroy it or am I not comprehending?

 

Bro, send me $10 and shipping costs and I’ll gladly pay it forward and ship to you. Shipping from 92139 zip code. Pm me.

 

these can be run with any filter. I’ve used drop in filters before mainly on cars. For a truck especially one that would go off-road, I wouldn’t.

those filters in a dusty environment should be cleaned often. There are however stories of those filters not catching everything that a paper oem type filter would and damaging the engine

nothing might ever happen, but depending on who you ask it’s a gamble

 

*sigh*
And this tube exacerbates the problem? And yes, I spend time south of the border on dirt.

 

Not at all, they have nothing to do with each other.

I only mentioned that because I wanted an intake pipe that didn’t come with a drop in filter.

 

That's $10 bucks well spent. It is just cleaner than the OEM below. Might gain you 0.05 HP with a smoother (less turbulent inside diameter).
