6G Celicas Forums

i know we covered a lot about intakes and what's the cheapest way to make an intake, but i would like to know if anyone has tried fitting a ONE-piece AEM V2 CAI into the celica and making it work? It looks like there's a S and L shape pipe that is welded together, but can we manupilate the intake by turning it around to make it fit properly?

HERE's what i mean...look at the pic...



any comments?

anyone?

too long, you would have to move you battery, somewhere to the back, preferably, by the looks i doubt it would work, you would have to remove the thicker piece as though it looks, You thought of this idea know what that means?! you can be the first to trie, or spend 70 bucks and go by a power rage intake kit from your local car parts store, and have fun with that. it comes with all different angles and everything its like a fun little puzzle. You could make and whole intake to go all the way around your engine bay, if you wanted!!

hahaha...okay...imma try to work with this one...i just like that coated color and the look of that AEM V2 CAI...black is too dark, red, blue, and sliver (chrome) is too common...this one is very appealing and yet not as brightly shine at your eyes if you gaze at it...ill go and when i've tried it out, i will update!

It looks like it MIGHT work. The keyword being MIGHT. But you might have to do some slight cutting. Other than that it looks like it could work. I say if ya got the money why not try it.

you are really going to have to enlarge the hole that the stock air catcher went in. I had to shave it wider just for the accord intake and that thing looks bigger..



Good luck and keep us updated!

or how about even using the TRD CAI and trying to make them fit? LIKE THIS COROLLA TRD CAI (part # 8257.140): $280.99



TOYO COROLLA TRD CAI


OR THIS INJEN CAI for the tC SCION (PART # SP2110): $280.00



tC Scion INJEN INTAKE

^ the accord CAI has been done many times over....its the easiest to modify to make work on the 6gc, thats y its used over other choices.

aem makes a one piece cai for the accord of that year, you would have to cut it to make it work but you would have the aem name. perhaps in the middle put a bypass valve in

and i just happen to have a 2.5" bypass valve for sale!

chances are you would need a 2.75" bypass valve...2.5" fits 2.25" piping which is injen size...i think the aem is 2.5" piping which would need a 2.75" valve
