sucks .. :(
I went on cpe to buy the intake, even though i was about to order one for the gen 1, it then says "select year" it only has 03 and up.. no 1999-2001 ..

weird...

I wrote Josh and he just told me it is an error on the website...still available for gen 1 and gen 1.5...just specify the year in the comments somewhere else until they fix the form.

excellent upgrade for this car. eliminates most of toyota very poor herky-jerky calibration for low speed on/off acceleration. makes a nice howl at full throttle but can sometime be a little embarrasing passing someone and your're flying by in a shrieking solara.
