As long as you have the stock airbox, there is no filter that is going to give you 5 hp.

Both K&N and TRD have reusable filters for the stock airbox. While they are supposed to significantly improve airflow over the stock paper units I don't believe anyone has done dynos to show the difference. If they are that superior then 5 HP is conceivable (IMHO) but they cost more than $20.

I belive that TRD claims only 1-2 HP peak gain with there $70 filter. Yikes.

Is something preventing you from properly naming your thread? Everyone HAS to actually open your thread to know what you are talking about right?

What's wrong with - is it true that filter gives u 5 more hp? or Air Filter question.?? Power gain from Air Filter?

That way if someone is not interested in a particilar thread they would know without having to open it first. Saves time.

Second that.

Next time title your thread:

Is the TRD filter really worth getting or is it just a piece of crap branded with TRD so they can make scandalous profits?

Actually... I bought a TRD filter soon after I purchased my Celica. didn't do much, so..I started lookin at the box pretty close, propped the butterfly valve in front open..sounded cooler-didn't do much..
