I think it might be exactly the same.

Yeah, I believe it's the same although some people have told me it's like 1/2" bigger than EX piping. So I'm really not sure. Either way, you won't gain much with one or the other.

No they are not the same. The SI is larger. I know this for a fact because I have an EX and put an AEM EX CAI on it. Then I ordered a B16 which I have still not recieved. I then went ahead and bought an AEM SI CAI and put it on my EX so that I could sell the EX CAI. So I guess what I am saying is "YES" it will work you just have to tighten the rubber where attaches to the manifold very good. If you have any other questions just let me know.

The most common way for water to enter the engine is for the filter to be entirely submerged. The length the water would then have to travel, significantly reduces the possibility of harm being done. But if you want the insurance, then get the bypass valve.

They are NOT the same. The Si is 1/2" bigger. They have the same bends of course but are not the same size in diameter.
Bypass
