Adding an Injen Dual Intake Today... question

AdobePhil · 01-07-2012, 10:56 AM

I've searched through the forum and really couldn't find much... how easy is it to flood the engine with these?

I just want to know if it's ok to drive in heavy rain if I avoid puddles, or should I just flat out avoid driving in wet conditions all together?

Thanks!

I would assume you would be fine as long as the car doesn't go threw or get submered in a big puddle.

i have them and havent flooded the engine, but one day as the car sat outside for about 5 hours on a downhill slope while it rained and they collected a little water. my engine sputtered a while. nothing major to worry about as far as engine damage

Thanks guys! Edub, Where do you Typically buy replacement filters ?

I'm not exactly sure to be honest. Maybe someone else can chime in on this

Not a problem. and there's no rush.

After pulling off my bumper, unhooking my lights / laser jammers / etc... pulling off the old intakes, and mounting the left intake...

I found that Injen sent me 2 left intakes.

Looks like I'll be waiting another week for them to correct the problem and ship me the correct Items!

sucks u got 2 left intakes....especially after taking everything off...are you letting it sit or putting it all back together until u get the right intake

as for replacement filters...I'll probably replace them with K&N filters...would be the best option i think

Thanks, i appreciate the suggestion.

I already buttoned her back up, but I left the ducts off.
