If you have to ask whether to trade your AFE for a TRD intake, then I'm guessing you have buyers remorse. If your like me, then you already know the answer to your question. You'll never be happy until you get the TRD.

How much can you get for your AFE?

 

Exactly.:disappoin

 

not sure how much i can get... i've used it since october/november. I bought it before the darn TRD one came out. I bought it for $275. ANy takers? hahaha How much are TRD ones anyways?!?! does anyone have detailed pics (close ups) of the installed TRD intake. I really wanna see how "snug" it is to the side fender port". thanks!!!

 

Doesnt AFE make the TRD intake? I thought I read that on TTORA maybe I am mistaken

 

i have the trd intake. mine fits quite snug. i can sell you a brand new one for $325.00 plus shipping. if you find one cheaper let me know first, i'll see if i can beat it.

 

yes AFE does make the trd intake here is the AFE kit http://betterairflow.com/store/comersus_viewitem.asp?idproduct=2726

and here is the one for the TRDhttp://www.toyotapartspeople.com/SearchProduct.asp?Model=Tacoma&catid=3374291817232706&year=06&productdesc=TRD+Cold+Air+Intake

you be the judge

 

Definetly Not the same.:disappoin

 

^ you have got to be blind

 

i see that the toyota parts people have it for 310. i can match that and will need a zip for a shipping quote. i don't have them in stock but if a few people commit to buying them i will start keeping them. i only takes a couple days for mr to get them. if my local warehouse has them i can get them the next day. anyone interested let me know.

 

^ you have got to be blind

look at the baffle that fits into the wheel well. On AFE, it is more rounded, TRD, more oval...not same.

 

OMG!!! i got mine before they made that entire enclosure... i got JIPPED!!!!... i have a aluminum box with aluminum lid... no direct port to fender vent...UGH!!!! anyone want my AFE?!?!

Yeah, that sucks man. Not that it makes a whole bunch of difference, but still sucks.

Why can't the part be shipped directly from the warehouse to the customer ???

Or, from the warehouse to a local dealership, so noone has to pay shipping ???

toyota will not drop ship to anyone other than the dealership that ordered it. all of the dealerships are independently owned so the odds of getting another dealer to go along with it is going to be hard seeing that the price your paying is almost at dealer cost. it does not cost anymore for toyota to ship it to me, the only shipping you pay is for me to ship to you.

 

See the difference?

Here is a link to TTORA thread about the AFE intake. His is fully enclosed and looks exactly like the TRD.

AzzKicker I am not talking about that model of the AFE. It seems they have a new desing that looks identical to the TRD

 

I Want The New Design!!!! Ugh!!!

 

Any dyno results with this . I see that it is advertized to increase horsepower by 13 and torque by 22 acording for the afe.

 

New Design

Recently i took my afe system out of my truck because i beleive it set off my check engine light with a MAF code. When i removed the system the light went out, the filter looked as though it needed to be cleaned, i cleaned it last night and want to put it back in tonight. Any thoughts as to why the check engine light would come on, other then the fact that small amounts of oil could have got onto the MAF sensor. What boggles me is that as soon as i took the intake out, the light went out. I was checking out the AFE site for one of my customers the other week and came across this new setup, a completely closed box with a tube to the fender, liek the one some of you people are describing. Do any of you think that this will fix my check engine light situation. I have an 07 and the one i purchased said 05-06 i maybe shouldnt have assumed it would work. any feed back would be greatly appreciated.

 

Pictures??

Iforgot to post some of the links to the pictures if you any of you havent seen the new setup

The new AFE setup is identical to the TRD CAI, with the exception that the Air Box appears much smaller. Other than that, they are pretty much identical.

 

Are the filters for these kits oiled or dry? If they are oiled is there any source for a dry filter that will fit?

URD uses them on their CAI and Supercharger systems, top of the line stuff-

 

Where is a good place to order the TRD Intake?
