TRD Cold Air Intake question

Register to hide this ad
Does anyone know if the 2010-2013 4Rnr 1GR-FE will fit in the 2018? Part number PTR03-89100

The help is appreciated.

It should fit, since the engine has not changed at all for our 5th gens, including the 2018. I'm actually in the same boat for my 2017 TRD off road.

Edit: If you are looking to get one. It will actually be a lot less money if you purchase the parts individually than if you bought the whole kit. Check this thread out http://www.toyota-4runner.org/5th-gen-t4rs/85960-how-guide-trd-cai-installation.html
All the part numbers and other items you will need are in that thread somewhere.

i have it in my 16 trail. ordered parts separately and it ended up being 249 shipped to the house i believe. i kept the factory filter element because i didn't want an oiled filter. that will save you some $. i figure eventually i will switch it out with an afe dry element when I'm ready for a new one.
 
Added any noticble HP ? Did you have to do any computer work or does it automatically re-learn
I did not do any computer work. Pretty sure it will learn the new parameters. You feel a little more power, not a lot, but it seemed to gain a little pep. Not sure if anyone has followed up, but the TheWraith's dyno runs are the only documented TRD CAI gains I know of.

He showed a gain of 5 Hp + 19 ft lbs Tq.

I "feel" like its a little more powerful, but that may be just from the increased sound when accelerating. The noise once you get over 3,000 RPM or so and up is worth it alone :D

I didn't touch the computer. After going in it averaged about 13 MPG for one tank or so before getting itself re calibrated, then I noticed about a 1.5 MPG bump up over what I had been previously at.

most of the local performance shops have recommended the K&N CAI system
and Toyota dealers seem clueless and say the TRD CAI system is not even available for my 2016 T4R ...what system did you end up using in your vehicle? any lifter noise coming through ? and did you also change out your stock muffler to something with higher flow ?

kind regards

I got the TRD CAI. Had to untape one wire for a sensor that is taped together in a conduit with a few others to get enough length for it to plug into its new location. Otherwise it was entirely bolting off and on.

Not sure what lifter noise is. Did not change the muffler.

Installation Video

I bought TRD parts from Camelbak Toyota and wire loom, vacuum hose, silicon spray, silicon paste, zip ties from AUTOZONE & O'REILLY.

How much cheaper was it individually from the whole kit?
If u buy the kit does it come with the filter or is that additional?
Thx
 
do you lose torque at low rpm as mentioned by many ?

No not in my experience, my dyno showed 12hp and 23lb tq. I don't post it because there are way to many forum jockeys saying things based on what they heard, if that. I guess people can say the same by me not posting it but I really don't care to argue about it anyway.
