    Uhh, didn't we go over this in another thread? That thing is snake oil... and expensive snake oil to boot.

    Ahh, yes, here it is! Cold air Intake? - Not a Joke or Noob question | PriusChat

    Seems your myths got debunked in your own thread, so now you're shilling this bad advice in other threads... why?

    Thanks Dave I still need to drop the back, when we went to install the rear springs they were too small for the strut, we couldn't get the rears to close enough for the spring to be houses properly but after reading another post on here I guess it's pretty common.
