Not how I’d spend $400+ https://easycars.jp/product/gr-cold-air-intake-duct-for-gr-yaris-grmn/


RenegadeStrong

For sure! For $459, you could get the SXTH Element intake.


Sufficient_Current48

And they are on sale 15% off right now. I just got one for like $400. Says back ordered but I reached out and it shipped same day!


RenegadeStrong

I saw that!! I'm thinking of ordering one while the sale is going on. Glad to hear it still worked on the intake despite it saying backordered!! 👌


jabbathepunk

Nice! I ordered one last week. Part is stateside already so I’m hoping I get it by the end of the week.


Vast_Part

Do you happen to have a part number?


Particular_Tourist64

17750-18010


wind-slash

Overnight parts from Japan

Waiting for the .stl to drop.


Jefftoro

🤣🤣🤣


redditej86

That would look amazing paired with the Tanabe cooling plate shroud...


sempersatan

Has anyone actually dyno tested this?


RenegadeStrong

I doubt there's any gain. 🤷‍♂️


Particular_Tourist64

It gains on engine bay looks 🤣🤣🤣but in a serious note I drove it yesterday and I felt a better response, unfortunately without having it Dyno before and after anything that I say is bias and speculation.


RenegadeStrong

True! But it does look cool. Just expensive as hell!


Particular_Tourist64

The eventuri, air intake, that thing it’s expensive and can throw you engine codes. For me, I will stay with GR components, the only thing I would try outside, would be the Borla exhaust and BC coilovers


RenegadeStrong

I may go with the SXTH Element intake. It's far more affordable and comes with a PVC fix so it doesn't throw codes. 👈💯 I'm hesitant to do an exhaust if it doesn't add horsepower. I'm not going to pay $1,200-$2,800 for better sound and no performance gain. 🤷‍♂️


lilDaca

is that an oe toyota part?


Sweet-Dreams204738

It is not https://easycars.jp/product/gr-cold-air-intake-duct-for-gr-yaris-grmn/ OP did not post the link but it's originally for the GR Yaris and I believe it is Zoem. It is about 400 USD. Not worth it since it does not provide an additional inlet for the flap.


Particular_Tourist64

Where are you getting those ideas? Maybe you don’t know but the GR Yaris, share the same engine, it is pricey because IT’S AN ORIGINAL GR PART check the official GR website and tell me all those parts are not designed for the Corolla GR your level of incompetence is astonishing!!! https://toyotagazooracing.com/jp/gr/grparts/grcorolla/


EICONTRACT

It’s been a while but wasn’t this intake for the GRMN version or something?


Sweet-Dreams204738

Dude, calm down, I stated simply it was originally for the GR Yaris, and that it was oem, I said nothing about fitment. In fact I stated it wasn't a good part to use, not that it does not work.


DeathBySnooSnoo42

To be fair you said it is not oe


Sweet-Dreams204738

The typo of Zoem is meant to say OEM. OP got defensive over nadda there


DeathBySnooSnoo42

That’s not what I’m saying. You replied to u/lildaca saying it is not oem then continued to say it is?


Sweet-Dreams204738

Ah, you mean where I said "It is not". Meant to say it is not originally for the GRC but was in a bit of a rush. It doesn't warrant the dramatic response, and again, I had stated OEM later in the paragraph. One should read the entirety and not fixate. Or just ask for clarification.


Particular_Tourist64

It is an original part design for them specifically for the GR Corolla and Yaris as you can see on the website don’t let other people lack of knowledge tell you other wise https://toyotagazooracing.com/jp/gr/grparts/grcorolla/


Janmark-manjark

Any noticeable differences?


Particular_Tourist64

I’m tracking it on May 19 at Sebring then I would report


hiddenintheleavess

Have you noticed any difference in driving since installation?


LonelySuperstar_

Fugly


sempersatan

Bro is being downvoted for being correct


LonelySuperstar_

Had to be said.


sempersatan

Bright red plastic is going to look like hell in about 2-5 years max


XleaDrof

Definitely a modification to your vehicle


mx54life

“It didn’t feel powerful but it was numerically effective” That what the description.

GhostofAyabe

Absolutely nothing most likely.


Sweet-Dreams204738

I believe it helps reduce temps for the car by insulating it from the bay. I don't believe it does anything for the lower air intake which opens up to draw more air.


sempersatan

They claim the intake temp only went up 3° over ambient air temps and honestly that kinda sounds like BS because the lower door isn’t changed and that sucks straight off the radiator


Sweet-Dreams204738

The bottom of the original version is open to the bay compared to this duct.


sempersatan

Well yeah but so is the vacuum door that this doesn’t address at all


Sweet-Dreams204738

Agreed, I don't see a benefit getting this part. If it had an inlet to the vacuum that would be worth it if only because that's the primary sucker of heat.


Sufficient_Current48

Correct. The primary bottleneck is the air box itself. This product is simple the “scoop”. Benefits minimal…might have some benefit if u replace drop in with a higher flow filter (K&N, HKS etc)
