from cai to short intake, good or bad?
hey guys,
i had a Cold Air Intake, i bought it from ebay for like $50, and i thought that it was standing way too low, and i was scared to drive through standing water, especially during rain, because i heard that some people had their filter suck up water. So what i did was, I took the CAI, cut it and made it shorter, and now filter is right next to the batter. All the 3 tubes that were supposed to be on intake are still at the same place. And the black thing that you plug into the CAI, i took that and i had to drill another whole and put the rubberthingy and pluged in the black thingy. lol. I dont think that makes sense at all. lol
here is a pic, maybe it will help
cant find any pics rite now, but i'll take some pics in like couple hours and i'll post them,
thanks, just let me know if its bad what i did or if its good for the engine/car
thank you
