the Apex-i filter does not fit NA supras. the bolt placement on the AFM is different for turbos and NA. I went through this problem. I ordered the Apexi from my tune up shop, and it didnt specify that it was for turbo at all. when i got it, took it home and it didnt fit. took it back, they called apex-i and then they said it was for turbo not NA. which they never said on their site at all. The bolts line up differently on the 2 AFMs. So i had to end up getting the K&N

I got a K&N FIPK, through out that oily ass AFM killing bullshit and got an AEM Dryflow 6"x5element" Higher flow rates than K&N with no oil, right out of the box, plus easy to wash. AEM you my only friend.

Edit: P.S. HKS Turbo exahust, good numbers and decent sound without the grapefruit launcher look. Just remember to paint it with high temp to ward off rust.

935motorsports has a K&N FPIK for N/A supras. I'm thinking of buying one, says it's direct bolt on.

When upgrading a N/A Supra's exhaust, what exactly do you have to upgrade? I had a custom 2.5" exhaust made, with 2 resonators and a crappy muffler, but I didn't see anything that looked under 2.5" in diameter. Should this be helping already? I'm running stock air filter so maybe it's advisable to get the K&N FPIK?

I would just go to the parts store and buy a K&N stock replacement filter. It goes right in the original box, flows better and won't get wet.

As far as exhaust, the best way to go is with a good header and a larger, less restrictive exhaust system. The header will give you the best gains. Look for a good quatlity header, one with a good coating. The six cylinder sounds much better than a 4 cylinder engine, but if you can still get too annoying with the exhaust noise resonance inside the car with not a good enough type of muffler.

K&N stock replacement filter is better than any cold air system? How come all the highly modified supras I've seen have cai? And how would a cold air filter get wet?

Any recommendations/links to some high quality headers? Also, I've read that 2.5" is optimal exhaust size for a na engine car...Is this true?

There isn't one that fits the supra, but there IS one that fits the K&N FPIK. www.horsepowerfreaks.com sells a 6" inlet, 5" Element Dry flow that will fit the K&N FPIK setup.

If you want a cold air intake make sure to put a K&N Precharger or whatever its called on there, its like an anti-water condom for your Cold air to help reduce the risk of water getting on/in the filter, seriously though, CAI produces very little power for the risks.
