Re: K&N SRI (#69-8757TTK) for 2009-2010 1.8L

Got it! I sanded and repainted a few rust spots on the exterior of the heat shield but it was otherwise in great shape. The AEM 21-202DK is a bit smaller than the K&N RU-4960 that comes with the kit, but should do the trick, no? Do you also use a pre-filter wrap? The filter I have is AEM #21-20...

This K&N SRI will work on your Vibe. We have had K&N SRIs on both our 09 GTs for 6+ years now without issue. Personally, I'm leery of CAIs because of the risk of hydrolock, but if you truly want a CAI, any intake that fits an 09-16 Corolla should fit your Vibe.
