Just installed Cold air kit it has the cool aluminum tube with the metal divider and the open cone filter. Installing it I had removed the bottom plate so there is no barrier from the filter to the road. It just lucks like it could suck in water if it rained where as the original 06 was enclosed in a box and vented through ports in the side. Has anybody had any problems with this style sucking in water in a rainstorm or off road-ing? I also have 2.5 true duals all the way o the rear and I didn’t notice any performance increase after installing it other then it looks cool, wonder if it worth the cost

looks like this one but aluminum tube

 

if your worried bout water gettin in, just put on a AEM bypass after the filter. the CAI didn't do u any good power wise.... should put money toward some long tubes

 

Cold air BS my IAT are lower now with the procharger go figure.

 

what is an aem pypass?

 

I really wouldn't worry about it, I ran a aem, with no box for along time, never had a single issue, no doubt my iats kick *** with the blower... There like COLD

I have a k&n precharger on over my filter. It keeps all water out. Look that way.

 

Mine was the same way.... Drove it in tropical storms (literally) and never had an issue... I wouldn't recommend fording a river with it but I wouldn't worry about even the heaviest rain... I have a different intake setup now though

 

i moved the little rubber protector thing over to get air to my fipk so it sucks in whatever is in front of me and i have no problem at all! im gonna take my tray out one day when i get bored

 

great no worries thanks fellow go-fasters >>>>>>....
