Last night me and my friends decided to build a short ram intake for my 94 celica gt. We tried to put a CAI but theres no way it would of fit with out remounting the battery. I just used a 2" to 3" reducer cupler that connects to my throttle boddy then i used a 3" 45 degree PVC pipe and ran about 7 and 1/2 3" to my K & N cone filter. I think the total cost came out to be like around 45 to 50 bucks. It sounds really nice.

I haven't seen the DRCAI, But I don't think it will fit if you have power steering (unless they are much more clever than I - which is quite possible!). Yep same car. (ZR actually). Heres my input on where to put ur CAI piping. Look at the picture of my engine bay.. As you can see, I've jammed some aluminium ducting to the left of the p/steering controller. Any rigid piping (pvc/stainless/aluminium) over about 2 inches will NOT fit through the gap where the ducting runs. Also - You can't run CAI piping over the top of the radiator top hose - the bonnet won't close. BUT - If you used a different or custom top hose, you could possibly keep the power steering and battery where they are - but now you will have to relocate the sensor on the header.... DAMMIT! Sooo - Move the power steering controller  I would like to do this sometime in the future, but I'm probably just going to get my exhaust shop to do it and fabricate a CAI when they are making my custom exhaust - Stainless all the way of course !!
