Air intake?

Any suggestions for a cold air intake on a ‘14 Taco? K&N? TRD? Airaid?

 

Stock!

 

I got the k&n CAI on my 4.0. I don't really notice any difference except the sound it makes at high rpm but I have no complaints. I got mine as a gift but I don't think I would have bought it personally.

 

Just a waste of money.

 

Eh just snorkel it if you want actual cold air coming in. If not, just keep it stock since our stock intake is technically a CAI.

 

I really hate to hijack but what kind of snorkel are all the cool kids using?

A snorkel is on my list of shit to do right now and I plan on going with the dobinsons snorkel.

K and N gives the sound a good kick in the higher RPMs with a flowmaster muffler.

 

Thanks, off to do some research

 

Got this idea from another member. Half the price, sounds stock and gas remained the same.

 

So no difference? Was it free?

 

So essentially it's done nothing.

 

Well apart from the extra oomph sound at higher RPMs. Power-wise yeah it doesn't do anything

 

That's what I have in my 07 and I am more than happy with the sound.

 

Write up? Link?

 

Ram air doesn't do much. Instead of increased air pressure the air flows around the intake like a toilet backing up. Passive forced induction ain't happenin at speeds attainable by a taco, you need to mechanically force more air in. The wheel well already is a CAI.

 

Been thinking about getting a snorkle, did your mpg improve?

 

It's just a noise maker. But if you must. Go with a dry filtered boxed intake like an afe or volant

 

Here in Arizona the factory "CAI" sucks hot air right off the pavement. Normally shows a temp at the intake air sensor of at least ambient plus 7 degrees. Also is in close proximity to surface road dust. One of the most invasive hydraulic system contaminants is labeled "Arizona road dust". Snorkel might just be the best compromise.
