    yeah i have the trd pro so the exhaust isn't a prob but if you can save a few mpg's and possibly get some more air in that makes the difference

    I did a lot of research before buying my S&B CAI I wanted the trd but when I seen this S&B and read all the reviews I figured the S&B would be the best choice I know a lot of people have said that the stock intake is good enough but I disagree after I installed the S&B and immediately noticed a change from sound to response and the main reason I got it was to improve my gas mileage and so far it been working just fine I noticed a gain of about 2-3 MPGs that alone is worth it to me not to mention how much better it looks when you pop the hood :yay:

    Let us know if that 2-3 mpg's holds up. That'll pay for itself in a year.

    Hey Nick, if it happened to not pass smog in a few years, how easy is it to reverse?

    No offense my tundra bro, but in my exceedingly humble opinion, smog laws may be the least sucky thing about California
