Default The rain is coming!!!!!!!!!!

Does any one have a problem with there cold air intake filter getting wet when driving in the rain? I have my wheel well on but I still don’t want it to get wet and I do not want to put all the stock stuff back on. Any one had a problem with this??????????

Every year we see lots of thread about engines getting hydro locked. Either just get an SRI, or cut down your CAI and when summer comes around use a coupler to make it back into a CAI.

Yeah, because everyone can afford that

That helps, but doesn't always prevent. One of the guys I worked with hydro locked his motor last year with an AEM CAI with a bypass. But better to have it than not to have it.

I personally recommend going with a SRI, but in the mean time avoid puddles, and if you cant completely avoid them go slow.
