Do I want the FUJITA or K&N cold air intake? - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

nathanb · 02-28-2009, 04:03 PM

The FUJITA says they get a better HP gain than the K&N.
I know to take what they say with a grain of salt...but I thought I would ask you guys

I can get either for about the same price, so that is not a buying factor for me. Can you guys offer any advise for me?

TIA

hmmm.. i think it will come down to personal preference
i would get the KN

isnt AEM going to make a CAI for our 6th gens?

I have a K&N at the moment, but like everyone else says, I dont feel much of a performance gain or MPG gain.. just a nice growl when I accelerate.

So, no HP gain, no mpg gain.
Just a better sounding sound.

So they sound the same?...the two brands.

With any of the intake kits your not going to be feeling any of the HP gains. Its all on preference...but i have a SRI on my car

get LED tail lights.... i was going to get an intake, but after what people said about them ( results) i decided to go tail lights.

Think about it

well you are comparing a short ram (k&N) and a cold air (fujita). people will argue that you will get more gains off the cold air. but the reality of it all is that you will barely notice such gains...if any. only thing you'll gain is an aggressive roar from your engine with either of those installed.

Tobeit · 02-28-2009, 11:21 PM

...on another note, your title made me

... how can we know what you want?

Redline_Me · 03-01-2009, 12:20 AM

Too much work to instal that thing, i would just go short.

leinadneon · 03-01-2009, 02:16 AM

K&N i think it looks better and sounds better too

**PRINCESS PEACH** · 03-01-2009, 05:06 AM

SRI is louder than cold air.

cold air... u need to watch out in the rain, or not drive at all.

Stupid question...but how aggressive?
I searched for audio/video clips and could not find any good ones...

So, the K&N is easier to install?...sounds like a winner to me

What is SRI?

And don't you need to be in a flood to suck in a intake's worth of water?

Isn't the stock intake in the front bumper?...so any of these 2 mentioned intakes are higher than the stock one...meaning you have to be more carefull (to not drive in 2 feet of water)with the stock one?

sri = short ram intake...search for fujita threads. One of them shows where the intake is located - low behind the front, left wheel well. Therefore the warning to suck in moisture with the CAI from Fujita (SRI is high in the engine bay).
