Hey guys/girls. Does NE1 have any engine mods yet. I have an XRS/6-speed, but It still needs to be bumped up a bit. TRD had the exhaust, but it a bit expensive. I called Millen they said the Celica's intake will not fit. Feedback will be great..db

I looked at your engine bay and I am pretty sure that the cai of the celica should fit.

The intake for a Celica will NOT fit the Matrix. Everyone assumes so because it's the same engine but the throttle body of the 2ZZ-GE angles upwards. The path of the pipe to the fenderwell also takes a different path.

Here's the comparisons...

Matrix


Celica
