AEM's Electronically Tuned Intake (ETi) system for 2010 and 2011 Toyota Corolla 1.8L
Gone are the days of bolting on an intake system that just sits there and does nothing while the computer does all the work. AEM's new 41-1403C and 41-1403P Electronically Tuned Intake (ETi) systems work with the Toyota Corolla's computer to produce attention getting performance. With a majority of today's air flow performance add-ons, the vehicle's computer must adjust and compensate for the changes in air flow; however at times,
the computer may be unable to completely adjust. With most modern vehicles, the mass air flow sensor reports the air flow properties to the computer, which in turn makes adjustments to the engine, transmission and fuel system to compensate and to keep things running smoothly.

To make sure the computer can compensate for these changes, the air flow must stay within a specific parameter.
When the air flow goes outside this parameter, the computer can no longer adjust and
in some cases a check engine light comes on. To combat this situation, many
intake systems incorporate some sort of air flow modifier that either
changes or restricts the air flow at or near the sensor to keep the air flow
within the computer's parameters.
Once again AEM is raising engineering standards with an all new series of
innovative air intake systems. With its revolutionary ETI module and fully
integrated design AEM has eliminated the need to restrict or stage an intake tube diameter as it crosses the MAF sensor.

models with 1.8L engine.
AEM's ETI intake system adjusts the sensor electronically to read proper air density instead of using physical tube designs intended to "trick" the MAF reading. This results in
an efficient design with large horsepower and torque gains.
AEM decided to engineer an ETI cold air intake system for the 2010 and 2011 Toyota
Corolla with 1.8 liter engine because it is a great selling vehicle that
could use some extra power and performance. Sure it is rated to get 34
miles to the gallon on the highway but it could use the extra boost an ETI air intake provides when passing and when the driver needs it.
Designed, tuned and dyno-tested
specifically for 2010 and 2011 Corolla models with a 1.8 liter engine, this easy to
install intake comes with a lifetime limited warranty. AEM testing
estimates a power gain of 6.9 HP @ 5700 RPM and a torque gain of 7.64 ft-lb tq @ 4400 RPM.
See Dyno Chart
for details. Actual results will vary depending on the condition of the
vehicle, mileage, weather and other variables. Installation is
relatively simple and is accomplished using basic tools.
Not only does the 41-1403C and 41-1403P ETi intake system add quite a bit of horsepower at the wheels, it is also easy to install as seen in the installation instruction sheet.
The 41-1403C and 41-1403P ETi
air intake system has a durable gun metal gray powder coated finish and it
comes with an AEM Dryflow air filter that is washable and reusable.
AEM Dryflow air filters offer great filtration with little restriction and
they don't require oil. For wetter climates AEM also offers a water
resistant filter wrap, part 1-4000,
to help resist splashes of water.

What does it take to become Dirtsports' Magazine Driver of the Year 2006 and Short Course Driver of the Year 2009? Well that's what we wanted to know so we went right to the source, Carl Renezeder.

Renezeder has been taking home the checkered flag for over 18 years in various desert racing categories. His first major win came in 1994 in the Baja 1000-Class 1 and to date Carl has 92 short track wins under his belt including being able to boast that he is the only driver in history to capture a Pro-4 and Pro-2 championship in the same season. Pretty impressive, right? Carl also tells us that his competitive nature goes all the way back to childhood, playing water polo in high school and in college at UCLA, as well as, a motorcycle hobby he has had since he could drive. So, we wanted to know what got this competitive guy out of the pool and onto the short course desert tracks? "I raced in the desert in Class 1 buggies throughout the 1990's, and then I saw short course racing on Speed in the late 1990's and realized that was my kind of racing. It was a meld of motocross and desert racing; it had the side-by-side competition, and plenty of jumps.

I competed in my first short course race in 1999 and the rest is history. I've been hooked ever since." Of course Carl didn't get to that first short course race all by himself. After he bought a Pro-2 in Southern California, he asked Curt LeDuc to prep it and bring it to his first race. Thanks to Curt's help Carl was on his way and didn't look back. Through the 2000's Renezeder won not only dozens of races, but also championships just about every year in several sanctioning bodies like Championship Off Road Racing, World Series Off Road Racing, SCORE International Off Road Racing (including the Baja 1000 events) and the Lucas Oil Off-Road Racing Series.

We all know the dirty, dusty, short course desert conditions can be tough on racing engines so we asked Carl about some of the products he uses. Coincidentally, one of the first products he told us about are his AEM filters. Carl says, "It's a great partnership. We demand a lot from our trucks and our team; that means we demand the best from every product we use on our trucks. The AEM air filters have been fantastic. We know that if we don't have to think twice about something that helps our trucks' performance, then that's one less worry as we head to staging for a race."

In September of 1966, with a listed base-price of $2,466, the 1967 Camaro was born, as was its sister on the "F-Body" platform, the Pontiac Firebird. Although the standards of the time dictated it was a compact car, it
was also classified as an intermediate touring car and a sports car. The Camaro's primary design mission though, regardless of how you label it, was to be the yin to Ford Mustang's yang - two muscle cars flexing in the same pony car division.
After four generations of the Camaro helping to define the look and sound of the ensuing decades, production abruptly ended in 2002. Then, in March of 2009, the nameplate was revived on a concept car that evolved into the fifth generation Camaro. And now, with the dawning of 2011, the Camaro has returned with its full Transformers Bumblebee induced glory.
The SS model for example is powered by the LS3 6.2-liter V8 engine and it has a six-speed manual transmission which produces a factory claimed 426 horsepower.
The automatic transmission equipped Camaro SS is fitted with the L99 V8 engine producing 400 horsepower. To counter the engine's get-go Chevrolet opted to outfit the SS with four-piston Brembo brakes, along with the StabiliTrak Electronic Stability Control System with Traction Control. Unquestionably, this is a car designed with the sports car aficionado in mind.
The V6 model features a direct-injected, DOHC engine that pushes an impressive 304 ponies and also comes with a choice of 6-speed manual or automatic transmissions. How far has the fifth generation technology come? The new V6 Camaro can clearly out-gun many older V8 models, both at the drag strip and at your local road course. As depicted in the two hit movies, these Camaros are monsters - good monsters as it were though.
With that much power coming straight from the factory, the challenge to create an air intake that would beat the competition and OEM specs wasn't easy, yet AEM's engineering department managed to get it done. After months of testing a total of nine different designs with 24 variables, using CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) analysis, in-vehicle fuel-trim tests, under hood thermal analysis, and over 180 dyno pulls on six different vehicles - they finally designed a winner with impressive mid-to-high range power increase.
There are in fact three new AEM Cold Air Intake Systems available for the 2010 and 2011 Camaro. For the V6 model there is
the gunmetal gray finish intake (21-8028DC) and
another available with a polished finish (21-8028DP).
Specially engineered for the SS 6.2 liter V8 model there is also a gunmetal gray finish intake (21-8029C).
All three AEM Cold Air Intake Systems for the Camaro use an oil-free DryFlow
air filter technology which is extremely durable and easy to clean. To further augment the filtration properties of the DryFlow performance
air filter, AEM also offers DryFlow Pre-Filters, designed to prevent splashes of water and/or mud from saturating the DryFlow air filter. AEM's Pre-Filters are manufactured from durable micro-screen materials that are pretreated with a proprietary hydrophobic process.
The more important development though is that all three intake systems provide around 16 horsepower of added peak power. In testing the factory form Camaro V8 generated a peak of 318.67 horsepower at the rear wheels. With the AEM cold intake system in place the peak power output jumped up to 325.98 horsepower - a maximum gain of 16.53 horsepower at 4,200 RPM.
Testing of AEM intakes for the V6 engine revealed a maximum power gain of 16.39 horsepower at 5350 RPM and 17.57 ft-lbs of torque at 2600RPM at the rear wheels. Any way you slice it that's a lot of pop for a relatively simple bolt-on installation.
Generations of car enthusiasts, hot-rodders and motor-heads began jonesing almost immediately when Chevrolet announced it was discontinuing Camaro production. Rejoice and jones no more, the Camaro is back, and it's badder than ever. Add an AEM Cold Air Intake System and this fifth generation Camaro will deliver an irrepressible tear of joy.
