Also, with the CAI, is there really that much of an increase of danger for hydrolock?

the AFE has the heat shield, the CAI goes down which COULD cause hydrolock if you got a lot of water in it.

Yes, thanks for the catch. Corrected.

Or you could get a carbon fiber intake. kargoboy (yarisuniverse) has one left!

I would do the AFE. I had the AEM for a while and had problems with getting the filter wet and eerything was installed as it should be.

^ I did the same thing and didn't use mesh. I used a utility knife to cut mine out

is there any kind of routing that needs to be doen to push the air to the intake?

The people who've done this for brake duct cooling added dryer vent hose or similar to direct the air; I'm just gonna cut the slots out and go from there.

I bought 10' of RV sewer hose.

Since my engine is sucking air from inside the bumper i didn't use any ducting. I might go back and put in some later on but I figure for on that will help air circulate in ther more than before

PETERPOOP · 05-09-2009, 02:03 PM
