Default Which Intake

I can get the V2 from a local wholesaler for less than $200, or I could get the typhoon for $235, any opinions or experiences. I had an Injen CAI on my 03 and it filled with water sitting in my driveway (I know I was like WTF) so Injen is out of the question for me.

No intake.... Just stock box with a high flow filter!

And maybe a snorkel

v2 sits in the same place as the injen so your really not doing any better.

maybe just fabricate a rain cover I want an intake cause I have seen it improve drag times slightly, but every little bit counts, not that I'm building a drag car, I'm just performance oriented.

I have the AEM and Im happy with it (I have the V1). Stock box is smarter for rain and reliability reasons, but that sound when Vtec hits is great with the CAI!
