ive been lookin to mod my 97 sc and im stunned to find out that there are no intake systems for the 97 and up sc300. they have them for sc400s and old sc300s though. if anyone knows about an intake system for the 97 sc300 or knows why there are none, please let me know. i also heard of this thing called the "Turbonator". i know, sounds ridiculously stupid, but it claims to have an average horsepower gain of +35 and an average MPG gain of +12. if anyone knows anything about this or has it for their car, please let me know. thanks

For the 97, you can use the Injen intake, or the ebay one. There's a thread about the ebay one i think on this same page, or maybe the next one. And don't get the turbonator. Sadly it wont do anything.

are you sure? everywhere i look it says the injen intake is for the 92-96. i dont know whats stopping it from fitting in mine or any newer sc300s.

you could probably make more power doing a BFI i did it for my car and it was quite a difference, search for it.

Dont they make the SRT intake for the 97+.

nah i wouldnt do that, thanks though. im gonna check if srt makes an intake syatem for it

srt intake is very expensive and its only for the vvt-i and the injen intake says only for the 92-95 on the injen site. does anyone have a 97+ sc300 intake system?!!!? i am actually considering the bfi, if the injen isnt an option ill do the bfi.

the intake will not do anything but remove money from your wallet that can be used towards getting something you will truly get some enjoyment out of like dinner with a significant other or a night on the town.

the only reason i have one is because i made my own. i had extra piping, TIG welder, and some time on my hands a while ago. if i didnt have one of those i would just go BFI.

Wow, seriously. He left himself wide open and you guys failed to deliver.

We need more of a sense of humor on here.

The 92-95 has the OBDI MAF which was metal and bolted on to the airbox. The 96+ was OBDII where the MAF was plastic and just slips into a hole for the airbox. The only thing that might work from the injen intake is the metal piping.
