    So I just installed the TRD performance intake on my 2018 SR5. When I took the factory inlet tube off I noticed there was three holes that were tapped for something. Is this normal? Has anybody else seen this before.

    That's where the Camry vortex generator bolts to. It's what helps it stay grounded to the ground

    You’d think they’d put a bolt there just to prevent anything from getting inside of whatever that housing is.

    I’m no mechanic, I can do just enough to get me in trouble. Thanks for your input, i appreciate it.
