TRD cold air intake

[WoolCruiser]

Hey toyota Bosses, do you think the Tundra TRD cold air intake could work on 2013 land cruiser 200 series?

Somehow they claim dyno gains

Because they lean the engine out by tricking the maf into reading slightly low. See my post above. The gains are not from increased airflow but from the engine running closer to stoich.

K&N does make one for the 200
K&N 63-9040

What about 2013-2015?

 

[skrypj]

here is the WOT in the Tundra 5.7L Tune.

Divide the tunes stoich value of 14.60:1 by the values in the table and you get the AFR. So at 4000 rpm the Tundra 5.7L is running 14.6/1.25 = 11.68:1 AFR.

So the intakes(at least AFE's) spoofs the maf a bit to get the engine to run a little leaner.

Unless the engine bay changed I would think it would fit for all years

Just received/installed on my 2008 LC. Simple install (45 mins). In my opinion worth every penny and mpg loss if any which sucked anyway. Cheers

So you got the one that replaces the stock box?

Yes the whole kit.

I developed and sold aftermarket products for GM Supercharged 3.8 applications (strictly as an OEM). At one point one of our "mules" was used for development by Borla and K&N. We probably dynoed that car more than 250 times in 2 years and it was incredibly consistent.

I can state as a fact that the horsepower gains listed by K&N and by Borla for the applications developed on our car were 98% fiction. I feel comfortable sharing this more than 20 years later... at the time I was just shocked when we didn't see the results they did in testing.

All while fouling the MAF with a nice layer of oil.

This is the k and n intake I run intended for a tundra. Can't remember model number. Smiles per miles is fantastic!

Finally got mine. It said for a 2016-21 LC but had no issues with the install. Sounds great. Power wise? Might just be in my mind. I like it.

Having worked to keep an oiled K&N filter clean on a Porsche I used to own, I can say it was a PITA. The sucking sound was cool, but got old like anything else. Using the K&N cleaner, hosing it off, waiting around for it to dry, then renewing the oil.....and it got dirty way faster than the OEM unit. Can't imagine what a vehicle used on dusty trails will do to that oiled dirt magnet. Interested in hearing opinions down the line after a few cleanings. For me - Wix FTW.

Improved airflow over OEM and disposable pricing ($25). No enhanced intake noises, but simple.

I need to get me one of those pre filters, you know it adds HP! lol What's the part number?

Those of you who have done the K&N kit, 63-9040, how has your MPG been impacted? That's really the only reason I see to do one, I can't imagine there is an actual power gain (or one that matters). Maybe some throttle response.

Huge gains !!!!! J/k. Don't remember. If anything less, since you are stepping on it more than usual.

A new MAF sensor is $110 MSRP, so you'd want to save at least that much in fuel before you have to replace it to be a wash. Plus the cost of the filter, I guess.

Modern intake filters and systems are designed to maximize power and mileage, especially for otherwise stock engines. Fouling your MAF with K&N oil probably isn't the way to save money.

Is everyone overlooking the fact that the stock intake system is already a cold air system? And if you put a restriction gauge on your stock air filter box, you will find that it is also low restriction.

So... All this time and money to replace a low restriction cold air intake system with one that at best does no harm, and at worst becomes a warm air intake that fouls your MAF.

I just don't get it.

Note: Just a rant, not expecting any response or trying to start an argument with anyone.

Let's face it everybody wants to be different/special to the point of degrading performance it seems.

a drag race is in order! lol

Point of diminishing returns is real.
