    I just recently bought a 2008 Tc and i was wondering what cold air intake to get. Is there any difference between a name brand like Fujita, and one off of Ebay?

    Stay away from Ebay, unless, you are buying a used one. You get what you pay for and you don't want junk on your engine. The TRD and AEM intakes are the same. Most go with those two or the Injen. TRD Toyota-Scion Performance Parts Accessories from Sparks Toyota-Scion is a great place to order these. Let us know if you need any other help.

    When it comes to intakes whether they are CAI or SRI, your paying for a name. The piping that is used is aircraft mandrel bent aluminium 2.50-3.00 in diameter. The filters are also the same with the exception of K&N that uses an oil treated filter. AEM, K&N, Injen, Fujita, Weapon-R, TRD, BOMZ are all great intakes, its comes down to what name you want on your ride and what your willing to spend.

    Don't forget color. Some of us are crazy for color.
