 personally i like the k&n. either that or the injen because you can convert it to short ram if needed for those rainy days. the fujita i think is too much money for what it is.

So what if my girlfriend drives a Supra, I'm more sexier than she is! =)

 I have K&N and love it. Injen shows the most gains. Fujita actual shows low gains. I think the gains go as follows:

Injen
K&N
AEM
TRD
Fujita

 I hope that's not all you get.
HKS intake

They say that's a CAI but that's maybe enough for a SRI.

Got pics of yours installed?

hey WEB,

rrimportracer quoted on the thread about 2007 tc intake/exhaust that 2007 Injen CAI is slightly different do u know anything bou this? do u have a pic of this? because i have a 2005 TC. wanted to see if it makes a difference.

 The only difference is the MAF sensor size. 05-06 Injen intakes are interchangeable but the 07 only fits the 07.

05-06 will NOT....NOT....NOT fit an 07 tC and visa versa.

Gains are the same.

 Not necessarily. Depends on the pipe size. Injen is quite loud and deep but sounds good. K&N, mine, isn't that loud but you can hear the whistle when i'm at 1/2 throttle.

 i have a short ram, custom of course...lol..but from experiece the short ram is louder and kind of sounds meaner than the cai, however the difference in hp is anywhere between 2-4 horses, not worth the sound so i'll just wait another year or so until i can get an injen cai on ebay for less than 150, if i wait i'm sure eventually it will happen...but for now, i made my own ram-air conversion and it sounds and feels ten times better.

 Looks pretty decent. When I had my weapon R I just noticed that the filter location was so damn hot after only about 20 minutes of driving in 80 degree heat. Even with the pipe leading into the fender, does your filter still get hot? Looks pretty good though.
