thats what im rockin

 

What does everyone think about AEM CAI ??

 

alright so i was reading up on the ijen cai the one with the mr technology you know how it goes behind the bumper kinda of close to the ground well what about when it rains ?? will water get in it or can you put a bypass filter on it??

 

all cold air intakes sit there on our cars. and it isnt exposed. it sits inside the bumper, so i wouldnt worry about it unless it rains alot (like everyday) where you live. and you drive through puddles where you would submerge your front end in water. if you want to do a bypass valve you have to cut the intake to make room for it. as it is one solid piece.

 

Adding a hydroshield to the air filter will help.

hydroshield huh? where can i get one of those
oh yea so what do you all think about that injen CAI with the mr 2 technology i heard its the first self tunning intake system in the world

 

hydroshield is like a water condom for the air filter, i know k&n makes them. just look around.

 

I just ordered the Injen CAI with MR tech. and ive heard its pretty good?

oh yea well after you install it let me if it works out for you because i think i am going to get one myself.

 

My injen CAI installalation went pretty smooth. All i would recomend doing is when your taking off the stock hoses (there are 3), cut them, dont pull... i broke a breather valve pulling on one of them just cut them off beacuase u really wont need them unless u decide to put the stock **** back in, then u can just buy new hoses.

 

Injen cai with the the Injen condom and your set

 

nice...thanks for all the input fellas

cut them? no, do not cut them. you pull them correctly and youll be fine. you broke a breather valve?? what are you talking about? keep your install tips to yourself unless they can actually HELP someone out

Well I got some other feedback AFTER i installed the intake saying I should have cut the hoses off.. lol.. that doesnt help much for me though but i posted some pics of the breather valve i broke before i got it fixed. heres the thread.
