After a week full of research. I got a Injen Cold air intake. Its sounds so good. And I can tell a power difference. I also didnt think I would be able to install it my self. But it came with step by step installing just for you car. $303 is what I paid for it on Ebay.
what research did you do? did you see the little tube that's designed to trick the maf? |

I have a K&N Typhoon V.2 and it's loud. May try and trade it to someone for their stock box.

It doesn't look sexy, but I like my stock with K&N drop-in. And duck, of course.

I was wanting the AEM intake until the other day when I drove through the hardest rain ive ever had to drive though and I realized that the AEM/MS intake isn't a great idea for conditions like those. Im probly gonna go with RB intake with the DUCT. Ive heard the duct has small holes at the opposite ends to allow water to drain out. Is this true?
|
^yes it is true
|
I'm honestly kind of torn.
My 8 currently all stock and want an intake system to be the first modification I make to my car. I want the AEM because it does the job right, has a nice sound, and not to mention it looks pretty slick in the bay. However, my 8 is also my daily. I've read up on a couple of threads regarding rain/water and the AEM, and I keep getting all of these mixed responses. I don't know what to do, really. I'll be owning this car for hopefully a good eight years, and a LOT of bad storms can happen in eight years, many of which I'll probably end up driving in. One user said that a little bit of water going into the engine is actually a good thing, and said that the only way one could possibly be screwed is if their intake was completely submergered in water. Others say that something as small as driving through a large puddle could result in damage to the engine. Is there an actual verdict? I'd like to hear it. |
Grog- Don't worry about the AEM when driving in the rain or puddles (small puddles).
I never had a problem with weather and have even taken it through those automatic car washes several times. Though I am one of those individuals who have experienced water in the intake, but my issue was when the dealer washed my car, he directed the water stream right at the filter, and the sock came off slightly and saturated the filter. I had to remove the filter to air dry and also the the couplers to wipe down. So if you like the AEM, go for it... just keep in mind where the filter is and don't spray right at it. Some people put a plastic bag over the filter while washing the car just in case. |
AEM for 2 yrs in PA, and no problems at all for my dd.
