Post by j0n47h4nr »

I just bought my Vibe and love it, its a 2006 base model and it is WONDERFUL!!! I have always wanted one since i saw the concept models years ago. I will be a regular user of this site because it is such a wonderful forum and all the people are so nice, especialy the genvibe God's...they are the most knowleagable people and it amazes me how nice you guys are. i will post pics as soon as i get my camera back.

neverenoughauto has the cai or sri and exhaust for a decent price. the supercharger can be from a vibe or trix. Used you can find them here, on matrix owners or 9thgencorolla.com. Also check out ebay for deals, just make sure they are authentic parts and the full kit.Welcome to genvibe! glad to see your into modding!

i went to neverenoughauto.com and the fujita CAI will fit with no problems, but is it worth modifying the other CAI's to fit my 2006? sand how would i do that?

Welcome to genvibe! As far as intakes go, the cosmo cai is the cheapest, but it does require a bit of patience and elbow grease/modifying to get it in. However, I still find it is the best deal, and I was willing to deal with the pain of the install to save about a hundred bucks.
