Hey guys.

Sorry for seeming ignorant, but can someone please tell me the benefits of installing this INJEN CAI ? Will I get better gas mileage? If so, how much? I like the sound on the outside of the car, but will it be loud on the inside? I kinda enjoy the nice quiet ride I have now on my 2008 SLE (automatic).

Thanks !

Theoretically the INJEN CAI gets you better gas mileage... but most people enjoy hearing the growl of it so much they push the throttle harder... thus getting worse gas. So if you can resist pushing the pedal down hard to hear it, you should get better gas.
And it is not so loud on the inside that it is annoying, just enough to get compliments every time you have people riding with you in the car.
And you can only hear the intake when you are accelerating... it will make no difference when just cruising down the road.

check out this clip of what it sounds like on the interior of my Solara
