I'm just getting started with my Celica and I wanted to know if it would do more damage than good if I installed some sort of cold air intake on my car. It's my everyday driver, so I don't know for sure what it will do. Any help of some sort would be much appreciated.

Thank you.

A short ram intake would probably be a safer bet on a dd that eay theres less of a chance of getting water into the intake
An without an exhaust you wont notice any real power gain

This. Even with the exhaust, you won't really gain but a few hp. Intakes on our cars are mostly noisemakers.
