I have an 08 scion and i cannot find SRI's anymore!?!?!? I ordered one last month but something went wrong with the order and i got a refund. Now i cant find one anywhere?!! lost technology or what?!?!?

 

injen cai is also short ram .... try hopupracing.com or wesellcarparts.com ......

 

^ yep, if you get the injen intake system it converts to sr.

 

true. but i dont wanna pay the money for cai when imma just use it as a sri... from wat ive seen the cai is twice as hard to install.. is the difference worth it?

 

Weapon-R sells SRI

http://weapon-r.com/english/index.ph...oducts_id=5359

Pretty sure you can find a better deal elsewhere.

 

Doesn't the TRD intake also convert to SRI?

 

yes it does, thats what i did

 

Is the SRI the injen cai everyone gets? or do they get the normal one? or the racing development one? >_<

 

You actually lose hp when using SRI, unless you just want the growl, then go for it bro.

 

what about the Injen RD and SP Series cold air intake systems? does one growl more than the other? which one doesn't lose hp?

 

Just think about it... When using SRI your sucking in all that hot air, because its located so close to the hot Engine, Fans, Valve Covers etc. Using CAI sucks in that beautiful Cold Air, yum yum sounds so great. The only thing u have to worry about is hydrolocking and catastrophic failure to do the motor because of it. Usually that only occurs if you drive throw a lake. LOL, just dont drive through any huge puddles and you should be fine. If your worried bout hydrolocking it by an AEM bypass... Then your good to go. Take it easy...

 

if your worried about installing a cai then have the dealership do it(however they tend to be pricey). All injen products come with step by step instructions with pics(not color though...lol) and doesn't take a degree to install. so id say install it yourself. Also try serching youtube so you can compair each cai and sounds.

 

for sri's do you get a bit more throttle response with a little hp gain.

im aware of the heat soak when the car is stationary, but when the car is on the move all the fresh air is being passed through the engine bay right?

 

all true to some extent. its alittle better over stock but dont get me wrong cai isnt like a huge performance increas over short ram...just a little better.

 

ebay =]

 

the only cold air intakes i could find were for 285, none on ebay either any where cheaper?
