Engine 8th gen intake question

8th gen intake question

hey guys some of you might remember me from 9thgen.. i had the 2003 s/c'd corolla. n e ways i recently purchased a 2001 corolla and have been doing some small mods to it untill i can afford some bigger things. i decided to take the intake snorkel off today and noticed that it was atached to a box that is below the fender well. anyone know what that is? the 2003 never had that so i was kinda surprised.

resonator box

does taking that off do anything as far as airflow?

Its not as restrictive but it won't much difference besides sound.

so its pretty much just to reduce the intake noise... good to know thanks. it definately make the engine sound more agressive with the snorkel taken off but thats all it does. im going to buy an intake but i want a true CAI and so far it seems that only ELP makes one and you cant find them anywere.

do you have a link by chance. ive tried searching and came up with nothing. id be happy getting one for a 98-99. ill just have to modify for the MAF sensor.

WHat ever it was i seen it on my car and took it off and i will tell you something that little sucker was heavy so your car will be lighter....lol

try emailing ELP..... i did and i got a reply back and an 8th gen intake at my door..

do you by chance have their e-mail? ive tried looking for anything about them and all i find is posts about people that want an ELP intake but no e-mail or website or anything.

i bought ELP's last cai may 6th... there was a death in the family so the owner is behind on his buisness... i'll get my ELP CAI soon...
