    My TRD intake arrived this afternoon! I bought individual pieces rather than the whole kit. $280 with shipping. I had already bought a K&N drop in air filter that day I bought the truck for $40. I bought the air exciter a few weeks ago for $20. So....I have $340 in the kit vs. $500 plus shipping. The new kit takes the 45 degree bend out and makes the intake tube straight.

    I have all the part numbers if anyone needs them.

    I bought these at OEMPart World. They were the cheapest I could find.

    Upper air box. PTR03-35160-AA. $123.46
    Intake Tube Kit PTR03-35160-AB. $53.58
    Throttle body coupler kit. PTR03-35160-AC. $35.16
    Air box bellows kit. PTR03-35160-AD. $55.85
    Air exciter. PTR03-35160-AE. $23.64

    I didn't buy the TRD air filter.... Its basically the same as my K&N. The K& N has to be cheaper....I had a $10 off coupon at auto zone
