these numbers are great

The AEM is a good intake, but can lead to serious consequences if it sucks water into your motor.

 

i damn near hydrolocked my motor because of this intake. i plugged the drain hole but the entire lower pipe still managed to fill with water when the car sat in the rain. if you are going to keep the intake, i strongly suggest making some kind of umbrella to shield the filter from water dripping on it.

 

holy shit , u serious guys?............

808style: what intake are u using now?

 

I've got the AEM on my car. Like you, it came with it and I didnt have a stock air box.
The day I drove it home (from Bellingham WA - North of Seattle to Oregon) a storm came in and was a solid downpour almost the entire time. I didnt have any trouble.

Avoid deep puddles and you should be ok. The S is a lot lower than many cars and even smaller puddles can have consequences.

 

i looked over it today and there is a shield down there that avoid the water from splashing up.

so as long as avoid small/big puddle of water or heck dont even drive in rain is my best bet?

all the j's an mugen intake are above 1k *eek*

 

i found the most decent deal i can get is a K&N fipk gen I or II kit or the comptech ice box ( someone still sells them)


i've read a lot of thread already but most cant show their dyno on just the intake


can i get some advise here from u guys?

 

I have the AEM V2 as well. I didn't plug the drain, but I did make an umbrella out of a $1.89 plastic flower pot from Home Depot. I tested it and it works remarkably well.

I don't go near puddles.

 

hmm the drain holes and umbrella u guys are talking about , what is it actually?

so K&N or comptech guys ? =(

 

Well I have an eBay special cold air intake. (I know what you guys are thinking why would you be stupid and do something like that. Well it

 

K&N FTW!
