No going back

Need to plumb it to the air box/move coil and seal off all elc plugs( had to do front brakes first so didn't have time to plumb it after I got it on)

Why would I need to do that?

I second that thought...... why would you need a disconnect?

I have a friend that has one and runs it 24/7 on a DD.

Its aimed towards the front, i think your good for dd. If it was aimed backwards youd need a disconnect so you could get airflow at freeway speeds. 8)

I'm not all knowing snorkel guy or anything, but i've herd that its like breathing thru a straw for your motor. so a quick connect diconect would help ya on everyday level.

I was thinking about putting one on, but I would only use it a dozen or so times a year.

Hasn't affected his performance at all.

Think of it as a "Cold Air Intake" for your Yota!

By the way looks good.

Where did you get it? And post some pics of under the hood when y0u plumb it to the air box. thanx.
