Free Mods?

Anybody know of any free mods to the GEN5 Camry 2.4cyl? Airbox...etc

I eliminated the carbon filter from the top of the airbox. Any gain won't be measureable.

Grab your lucky hacksaw,cut off the bottom of the airbox.Also you could toss your spare tire and jack.I cut my muffler off and ran straight pipe out,that cost me $40 after paying $30 for the tip. http://video.cardomain.com/clip.aspx...E772F69CA79625

Cutting off the bottom of the airbox will only allow hot engine compartment air to enter the engine. Hot air equals less power. That's a free mod with no good purpose at all.

youre right.Its not quite as bad in my car because the manual transmission is so much smaller and runs so much cooler than an auto.There is alot of room for fresh air to flow around the hole in my box.

It's in the lid between the air filter and the MAF sensor. It's held in by plastic rivets/melted plastic tabs.
