Injen + Strong Thunderstorms = Dry

Ok here it go guys. For the past week are so its being raining cat and dogs here in houston almost every day. On saturday it was raining so hard cars were driving like 20 to 30 mph. Trust me anything over this speed and you were going to hydroplan. I checked the injen intake after a hour of drving and the complete unit was dry as hell. You really have to screw up pertty bad to get this thing wet. The plastic air dam keeps that entire area dry.

I can vouch for the rain part. Not so much with hydroplaning though

Seriously, the rain was quite strong here. Visibility was down to a car or two in some parts of the highway.

Thats good news about one of the few possible concerns people could have with the Injen CAI. I definitely want one.

I've heard the theory that the AEM bypass valve will fit on the Injen CAI. Has anybody actually gone and tried it though?

Don't have a problem with hydroplaning if you have the Mich Sport A/S'

That's a good thing to hear.. I'm receiving my Injen on Friday. Can't wait to get it and install.. I'm replacing that with my Hybrid PR Cai/Apexi setup.. If anyone needs a PR CAR or Hybrid PR Cai setup PM me after Friday
