CAI's are a waste of time. more trouble then what they are worth.
I reckon they're great man. Good mod IMHO because it's cheap, easy to install yourself, you get a nice little gain and the sound is very sexual.Quote:

IMO its pretty hard to get water sucked in, if you have ur splash guards on properly they will repel water anyway, so you have to be in pretty deep water to get a lot of water that will actually hydrolock your engine. Just be carefull when its raining and you will be fine

That's enough to send me away from this long arm type intake.
Personally , I have opted for a comptech icebox.
Inducts air from the same place at the
front bar and is perfectly safe. And as for peer or feel gained - like all intakes it just makes more noise lol.
cold air intakes like injen,fujita are dyno proven :S
From jdmyards dyno run test on a dc5r
