Idle and throttle response seem smoother. There was some hesitation to the throttle some times when giving it gas from idle before (possibly do to me removing the main resonator), the intake has seemed to cure that. It seems to pull harder everywhere but that could be me wanting to see results for the money spent.

So far I'm liking it.

Seems to be the consensus with everyone running this, definitely going to get this after I get a tune!

It will likely improve after the ECU has some miles on it to relearn. Also we might want to clean your MAF still if you haven't already done that. Mine looked clean to the naked eye, but after spraying the MAF cleaner on the electric contacts you could see it was removing some contamination/oil

I just had mine installed by the dealer along with a TRD exhaust. Hard to tell any difference because I'd only had it for a couple days/200 miles before that. One thing I do notice is that its really, really loud. Sometimes its so loud I don't really like it. Do any of you notice the same thing??

Sprayed off the maf sensor before installing. So far so good. Hopefully the dyno shows some results.

Yours is probably loud because of the TRD exhaust! The TRD intake does not add that much noise. It's quieter than the stock box with the silly sound generation tube.

Your TRD exhaust should quiet down after its broken in...

What did the dealer charge to install them? I know it's easy enough to DIY, but the warranty advantage would definitely help resale value.

I had those 2 things and a spoiler installed and all together it was just over $2K.

The ecu must be settling in because the car was definitely pulling harder than it ever has on the way home.

I only have the TRD intake and my dealer charged $40 plus tax to install it.

Did they break out the labor only part of the charge on the repair order?
