I have a 1995 Avy XL, with the 1mz-fe 3.0 engine, and want to put a CAI/SRI, and Supercharger on there, but I cant find any. I saw Kyle_Mains video of his SRI and am thinking of trying that but someone mentioned the MAF Sensor is too big or something. Do i need the MAF sensor? My check engine light is already on for some unkown reason, so idc if i affects that. Also I cant find a TRD Supercharger for this engine. Links please. =D Thanks!
if your telling me you can find a intake for that car something is seriously wrong. make your own or buy one for a different 1mz of the same year be it a camry or es300. your car will not run without a MAF. and the TRD S/C is hard to come by. i'd love one for my es300 to destroy people but i'd need a adapter plate and they cost 2 grand used. better of trying to twin turbo.
Get a short ram to match the year from a camry. If your maf doesnt fit the piping then just get an maf for the camry and it might fit the wiring plug, or just rewire it.
Once you have the short ram in, you can just get some 3' piping and run it to where you need to make a cai.
first - do A LOT of research..
second - fix your car and maintain it.. a healthy 1mz is actually pretty suprising.. even in an avalon
third - make sure your engine is in top condition before supercharging it or even doing a lot of mods.
as for the guy that said find 3" piping for the intake, I'm pretty sure it has to be 2.75" unless you get the cpe intake. Even the cold air extension. (someone correct me if im wrong)
cheap things you can do: take out the extra silencers and etc from the intake leading into the filter, buy a drop-in k&n filter
fix the car!! i spent wayy too much money just fixing little things in my car, but now it's well worth it and i'll be looking into bigger and better things now..
How can I figure ot what the CLE is for?
@Greeksoccerboy Where are the "Extra ailencers" located? And I am not going to supercharge it for awhile, if I even do. And why is it suprising to see a healthy 1mz? I see PLENTY of Mid 90's Yotas with them in there.
Thanks everyone.
aha sorry, i meant the power of a healthy 1mz is surprising** not finding one healthy is. Like our 3.0's can pull wayy harder then most v6's can. The "extra silencer" goes into the fender. If you look at your airbox you see tubes going into the fender. I took my battery out and started tugging and idk if there were screws or not. It gave the car some extra sound so it's good. If you have an autozone near you they can do checks as well as pepboys possibly.
If you want a bit more power, try new headers and exhaust. I was thinking about supercharging mine, but there really isn't a point on a car with so many miles. With the SRI, headers and exhaust you should get at least 15 more hp out of it.
