Best Cold Air Intakes For 3rd Gen?

The one designed and engineered from toyota.

 

But, there are two for the V6. OEM and TRD Aftermarket. So, now what?

 

TRD is made by an aftermarket company, not Toyota. It will however have TRD’s blessing which is worth something to me.

 

My post was incorrect and edited to prevent misleading information.

 

While being CARB legal

 

The TRD Pro does not come with the TRD intake. Mine did, which was totally unexpected by the dealership, the salesman and me.

 

Well then, my misunderstanding on that detail. Please ignore my post.

 

I installed the Ingen CAI with a Flowmaster dual catback exaust , sounds and runs so much better, can really feel that intake after 2000 rpm

 

That’s just the weight savings from your wallet being so much lighter. The truck isn’t making more power, just more noise.

 

TRD looks the best!

 

The TRD kit is what I’m running.
But, I run a Denso or Wix filter

 

Agree, when the oiled one gets dirty I'm switching it to a good paper filter.

I’ve seen too much evidence over the last 20 years or so to run a filter like a K&N.

there’s actually a thread from a member in Arizona with upper plenum just caked full of crap…..He’s been running a K&N. 2016 model with 140k
