FS: Custom CAI for the 5sfe - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #18405 8 posts Started by hs2g
Up for sale is a CAI for the celica GT 5sfe motor. It is brand new, I just don't have the time or money too put it in. Its just laying on the ground for a few weeks now. Plus I'm planning on selling my car next spring so there is no point in modifing it. Well it has 3" piping and it leads to the driver side fender like the stock airbox.

Shoot me a good offer and I won't hesitate to sell. I'm in Minnesota so any locals can come pick up instead of shipping would be fine also. I'll post pics tomorrow.
So its a short ram?

The hole to the fender is a bit small for a 3" pipe. So I'd like to know how that'll work out.
" it leads to the driver side fender like the stock airbox " how that makes it a CAI????? please explain >confused.gif>

3in is pretty big for an intake for our cars, 2.5in is the ideal size so a lag wont be created. Thats what everyone here told me when I was building my CAI.

And you can run a pipe from the manifold to the fender and rip out your stock air box and run a CAI from inside the wheel well, I believe.

I originally got it from one of the members on this board. Yes 3" piping is a bit big for our cars but from what I hear the lag of response isn't noticable, and who doesn't like a look of a 3" pipe?

As for the hole into the fender is too small. You would have to dremel about 1 inch to make the hole bigger.

Anubs1, has the exact same CAI as this one and he is not dissapointed with it.
I am not dissing your cai man, dont think I am. I was just told that 3 was to big, but maybe your right.

Well I don't know for a fact that 3" too big or not. Thats just what I heard from Anubs. Since this CAI wasn't never installed on my car, so I have no experiences with it. From what I heard from Anubs1, he can feel it pull a little harder on the high end RPM, and a better accelleration.

So give me an offer.
