Yes so today me and elixion installed my 07 tc AEM CAI.
We have the first one ever made by AEM and i am the only one
in the world who has it =]
How friggen awesome is that ha ha.

I'll be posting pictures and videos ASAP.

The thing sounds mean as hell!
Thing whistles like a turbo.
Love it.

Thanks AEM even after me having to wait for seven months to get it.
But you made it all worth it!

2 1/2 hours to install it lol.
Took forever.

how do you know you have the first?

and lol why did it take you 2.5 hours to do that? it shouldnt take any longer then 30-45 min i would hate to see you be a flat rate tech

shadow12one

heh ya im interested in knowing how he knows hes the first as well

PakanaHerruus

im thinking AEM a prototype for him to put in his car, meaning his car is the first.. prototypes arent always the finaly product, so figuring out how to put these one for the first time.. could take some time figuring it out..

RobxFamous

AEM said. + the intake says somehting like.. 2320701
so i think it means model number, yr, intake #
possible?
and it took time because we got some things mixed around, instructions were hard to read, also just got engine light on, lol how do you disable that from happining.

Your suppose to disconnect the negative battery side to reset the ecu after you put the intake on. Then let it idle for about 5 mins.

kileil

^^^ disconnect the battery for 10 minutes, reconnect, start and let it idle another 10 minutes without revving it at all. Then go for a slow cruise before getting on it so the ecu can relearn.

RobxFamous

ok so pop off the negative and postive for a good 10 minutes, reconnect start the car let it idle for 10 minutes. then small cruise.
and it should dissapear. and how is scion dealers with warrenty with intakes?

kileil

They didnt install it or sell it so they're not going to work on it for free

RobxFamous

true, but i got my oil changed today and they said i had a minor transmission leak (this is before i installed the intake) and im wondering if that will effect my warrenty. i dont think so. right?

shadow12one

It will only void warranty if they can connect the part you installed to the problem. For instance you install an intake and your sunroof wind deflector breaks. Theres no way to connect that. Im not sure how they would connect an intake to a transmission leaking so its possible theres no void. They better have a good reason if they do tell you its void.

RobxFamous

well all the intake does is send cold air into the block not the transmission.

shadow12one

Yup. So there should be no reason why they would void that part of your warranty

RobxFamous

true true. I'll try to get some pics up tomorrow before i go on vacation for a week.
Going on a cruise.

intakes don't whistle...

hawgs74

U know what he means...

RobxFamous

i would hope he knows. in has a air sucking sound. sounds sorta like a whistleish noise.

jiggadomino

....
i thought trd was the same as aem
even the trd cai pictures on the scion website say aem..

kikcaffine

You know what? I bet it sounds EXACTLY like every other tC that has an intake on it!
