True, TRD are overpriced but so are all Toyta spare parts. See :"http://www.lexus.australia.as/technical_pages/Soar er%20V8%20Ram%20Air%20Intake.htm" Independent Air Filter tests are never the same as the claims on the side of box you buy them in. This is a free article that yet again shows that a K&N drop in panel filter has ZERO PERFORMANCE GAINS. Autospeed WRX powerup The only advantage listed is that is can be reused. It cost 3.5 times as much as a standard filter though and has to be carefully cleaned every 5000km. This site tests the amount of dirt going through a K&N filter compared to a standard BMW one. As usual the K&N lets more dirt through than the standard filter. BMW K&N dirt test So if you went into a shop and on the side of the aftermarket airfilter package was the following: "No Performance Gain! Lets more dirt in! Costs 3 times more!" Would you buy it? Probably not. So do yourself a favour. Go down to the Toyota dealer and get yourself a standard airfilter: Here's the part number: 17801-46060 [Report message to a moderator]
