K&N Cold Air Intake

Everyone. All Tacomas come with them.

CAI would be better called AAI. Ambient Air Intake. Yes, its colder than the engine bay intake of yore, but it may not be 'cold'.

Oh, a skeptic huh? (In my best Curly of the 3 stooges voice)

What's the matter, dont you read the marketing blurbs?

 

I'm going to say that were both right.

The "Big 3" in the performance world is 1) Intake. 2) Exhaust. 3) Tuning. - Stage 1. ------Stage 2 is a "Cam". There is much more but that's all I know.

From what I understand, an engine is comparable to an "air pump". You need to be able to exhaust as much air as you put in. But it doesn't do you any good if you upgrade one without upgrading the other.
