Okay. So the mounts on my cold air intake are not holding as well as I'd like them to. I got a mechanic at some Big Al's to do the weld for me when he was done welding my exhaust.

I want to go with either a K&N or TRD or some other cold air intake.
I know that there aren't drastic results with these and some say to keep it stock due to horsepower reasons.(Some say they dyno-ed their truck and lost HP after they installed the aftermarket CAI. I am not worried about all of this.

All I want to know is where these aftermarket cold air intakes mount up to?
I have searched and can only find the Tundras, newer 4Runners and Tacomas running these intakes.

Here is my question in the form of a picture.

WAIT! I spoke too soon. Now I have another question. Is all of this provided with a K&N intake? (In terms of the piping. Not the MAF sensor housing and air box. I am assuming all that on there is factory) I am going to be using their cone with the heat shield, not the air box. Even though I like air boxes more..

I actually have a K&N that I used for a short time for my 1999. My wife asked me to put the stock back on! If you want, I will sell it to you and ship. Make me an offer. It is missing one screw in hose inlet. I can probably find at auto shop prior to sending. It actually mounts right to your throttle body then there is a flat bar that comes down and will bolt into your engine through one of the bolts already there and then to the Air box screw holes.

I have the K&N and it bolts up in the #2 spot in the pic in your post. Since you have a 2002 I think you have a couple other options, but K&N is the only company that makes an aftermarket CAI for my 96. My stock intake was all dry rotted and fell apart when I took it off lol

Oh and I cleaned my engine and you were right, it got rid of the noise. Dirty timing belt... noise is still gone but now the engine is dirty again thanks man! I was getting nervous for a minute lol

if he doesn't jump on this then I call secondary dibs haha

im confused on your question. what are you asking?
can u see the bracket going from the intake tube to the cyl head.

Let me know. It looks like bran new, the filter isn't even dirty!

Hey low range has one on their site that is from trail-gear I think but it is for the 5vz. Runs about 180 ish. And then tere is another one for 241

I have a full k&n system still new in the box I've decided I'm going with a snorkel and no longer need it. Pm me if interested. I paid well over $200 for it. I'll take 180 make offer.

Just go buy the K&N CAI.

Once you get it the installation will be obvious. Good luck

You don't have yet correct? Once you get it you will see how simple it is to install.

I noticed a difference with the K&N CAI only after:
1. installing it
2. at the same time installing a high flow exhaust
3. letting the computer get used to the upgrade (basically drive it around for a day)

You need to do with the exhaust. Just doing 1 will not give you much gain.

I have K&N CAI, aftermarket exhaust, headers.

If you do get an exhaust I suggest you put some kind of anti-drone silencer just behind the muffler. My truck has one that came off of a stock Tundra.

I have the Volant intake. It's a personal opinion but I think it looks a lot cleaner and sounds better than the K&N. but each to their own

other closed intakes to consider are AFE and Airaide

Thank you everyone for your responses.
I will do some more homework now that I know it's possible. I just don't still have the silencer. It appears I've lost it.

I will look at the Volant and K&Ns. Some of you might be getting PMs here soon. I have always installed Tein products and such on my friends ricers
