Ok, now I'm confused again. I have a short ram on my car and want to go with a CAI. All you guys have CAI's and are wanting to go with short rams. I know water is a problem with the CAI's, but short rams suck hot air into the engine.

DAYUM.....what sould I do???

 

Wow, the filter got wet.

I ran my cold air for 2 years: rain + snow, blizzards and $hit

You guys are scared of water? Try injecting it into the intake pipe like I did.

 

the short "ram" intake evolution has begun... lol

i knew it was only a matter of time... =)

 

well, for me... even though i have CAI, but just for the peace of mind... i made mine into short ram. it's been flooding alot lately, and perhaps it won't hydrolock... but just don't want to take the chance. that doesn't mean i threw away my other half of the pipe. i will be keeping it and when weather clears up, i will reconnect it again into a CAI.

dood, how you drive your car is up to you. perhaps you're rich... but for most of us, we would like to protect our investment. i know small amount of water won't hurt the engine... but in my case where around my neighborhood is flooded in the street... 1 ft deep... making it into short ram is a pretty smart idea to me.

 

I wish I was rich ... I work two jobs to pay for my addiction. I am very passionate in what I do. When it rains that much, I'd rather just not drive my car. It does help that I my family has 5 cars and then my girlfriend also has one.

 

dude ur so lucky to have 5 other cars... as for me.. this is my daily commuter and my hobbie car. so it kinda sucks when all the mod i want to do have to be done over the weekend...

 

Stock airbox + K&N drop in - resonator = ownz

btw, anybody see the AEM CAI v2 yet?

 

 

how do you remove the resonator?

 

I don't quite remember, but I think I took off the bumper, then just looked around and took off all the bolts that held the resonator and then started pulling

Basically remove everything that's under the airbox.


I drove through SO many huge puddles over the weekend, so I'm very glad I have a stock box. A CAI would have been scary.
