no point of running that.

honestly, i tell people that its useless to have i/h/e unless u have many other things upgraded. because it doesnt really help. it might sound like it but it doesnt. if u were to buy a short ram intake, buy it for the sound. Cold air intake helps a little and u can feel it.

so dont bother buying it unless u want it for sound or ur have many other performance parts.

another thing is that u can run a cold air intake if u have automatic (its not really harmful , very rare), but its dangerous in manual cars.
if u run into a puddle, an automatic car's engine would shut off not causing enough damage, while manual will keep spinning sucking in more water and damaging ur valves, unless u take it out of gear.

so its good to get the cold air intake if u have an automatic (i'm not gonna guarantee that it'll always be ok, but its almost harmless), but u'll risk ur motor if u have a manual.

and even when ur motor shuts off after going through a puddle (in an automatic), u can run all the water out, just crank it and keep giving it gas. the water will run out pretty soon like in a minute or so.
