CAI+water=??

[element1290]

I just installed my CAI into my car and its rained the past 5 out of 7 days since i was installed. I have yet to be able to buy a hydroshield for it, will it do damage to my engine??

you have to drive through some serious water, like small flood of water, but you really should get a hydrasheild or an AEM one way valve or both.

Just watch out for puddles and you will be fine.

I have a AEM bypass valve if you want to buy it off of me.

$30 + shipping, and it's your's.

bypass is a no-no with the speed6 (if thats what you have)

otherwise, like the guys above said, just watch out for big puddles and you'll be fine.

AEM CAI bypass valves can not be used on turbo cars.

I dont have a speed6, just a 6i...would that be worth buying? and is your used?

Im looking and I dont even see a bpv anywhere for my type of car, would that actually fit? Im not in the position to buy stuff I cant use.

If its not turbo then the AEM by pass will work very well for your car. If you watch AEM's videos of it, they actually stick the intake off a NSX in a bucket of water and the bypass keeps any water from entering the engine.

As far as which one would fit... well, I can't help you there, they are in sizes by diameter (2.25", 2.5" etc.) If you need the link to the aem website to help you pick what size you need PM me. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post it since they are not a vendor on here and they do sell stuff.

Edit: Just to clariry, this by pass valve is NOT the same as BPV as in a BOV (blow off valve) set in recirc for turbo cars.

i knew that he wasnt a speed6 thats why i recomended it. i have a short ram, therefore i dont need it. so it could have been closed with my response yes?
