Hmm.. May have to do that as I don't drive the car at all when it rains and if it does, I head straight home.

I had an RSX Type S with the injen cai's and just say I almost hydrolocked my motor. 6 oil changes later and all the water was out the motor..

The other option is to make some kind of baffle/surround that you could C-clamp over the Injens filter that would block the bottom side of it from water... But then really, these are things Injen should have R&D'd in product development... I'm kinda surprised their product has had so many problems with Z's.

At Injen's defense, their products are "intended for off-road use only." ;-)

True, but I doubt flooding is much of an issue on a race track where these products are intended for. =)

Well isn't a race track just a 'road course' So if it's intended for 'off road' use, then it's not intended for a track.

srsly though, I don't see why it would work on a track, and not on the street, when both have to have the same anti flood measures built in right??

It's simple really if you think about it... On a track you would stop a race during inclement weather.
