short ram or cold air

[BLUECELICA01GT]

i just baught a 2001 celica gt auto and am planning on getting a intake!
should i go with a short ram or a cold air?

[celicavvtli21]

cold air, short ram sucks up more hot air from under the hood

whatever you want, there is no power difference between the two

i have a cold air intake...and its lot better,way better,more power in the high end rpms...

Its your imagination, the engines aren't set up to take advantage of a significant difference in intake air temperature.

Just throw a K&N filter in the stock airbox and enjoy.

I bought one of those cheap(I wish) generic brand short rams(spectre I think). I didnt expect anything I could notice, but I changed my thought pattern very quickly

Cold air setups are supposed to be better(denser air and such), but I doubt it would make much difference unless u were driving something like a super gt car or other purpose built race beast.

Tests show that the stock box with a k&n is best. Stock usually is a cold air intake that you really can't improve on, except with a k&n filter.
