I do believe the politically correct term is 'Man-Whore'. Men cannot be sluts.

cold air intake+ water drops= no go? It's possible.

sexZness 06-22-2011 04:09 PM

yeah... xdeslitx had the same issue, apparently

wstar 06-22-2011 04:22 PM

How low do those Injen intakes go? I thought they stayed inside the engine compartment, and mostly protected from rain splash by the car's front undertray. Seems odd that would be the cause. Did the car splash through large puddles or something? Maybe it could be some wet-wiring problem too?

The way that they hang down, even with just water dripping through the engine bay running down the pipes to the filter, eventually get to them and soak in. And even not just that, but rain = water vapor which will permeate the dry material of the filter. Just remember Rain = Humidity.

wstar 06-22-2011 04:51 PM

Doh. Maybe find some replacement oiled filters if it's just the vapor/humidity. But if the design just happens to work out that water is channeling right down the pipes and soaking the filters, that sucks.

Thats why you see a lot of people who originally got the injens selling them or going back to stock. :ugh2:

Yup, It's the humidity making the [dry] filters not breathe, which sets off the MAF as malfunctioning and then all the other fun sh!t starts happening.

If you're thinking of doing that bud, don't waste the money. Just get some AMS Tubes and K&N Drop ins. You'll have the same gains as a short ram. Thats what I have till I get stillens.

Ron 06-22-2011 05:04 PM

:iagree: I am getting stillens tomorrow :D

TXSpeedDemon 06-23-2011 09:06 AM

Hey, you guys should try taking the old Highway 75 instead of 45. It runs mostly parallel to I45 and starts in Conroe but I usually get on just past the prison (I think that's Huntsville) and ends up north in Streetman. It adds about 30-45 minutes to your drive but is infinitely more fun. 2 lane road with lots of hills and turns, and limited cops (only near the towns). Huntsville to Madisonville has the nicest road with the most twists. Madisonville to Streetman is an older road with more hills.

I take it whenever I drive down to Houston to visit my brother and highly recommend it.

I was going to look at it, but with us still leaving at 11AM, people need sleep apparently, and the show starting at 4 instead of 5 it pushed any 'extra' time we had out. Might consider it for the right back or next time.

I say we do this and leave 30min earlier. Its really not that much if its gonna make it a better cruise. 45 is boooooring!

Ron 06-23-2011 12:31 PM

Or we leave at the same time and just go faster ^_^

Other issue now is we have other forums tagging along now and I have no way to contact them. Next time I will plan a long route through some fun roads.

Or on the cruise back :tup:

Ron 06-23-2011 12:58 PM

True.. how about leave at the scheduled time but change the route, we should still make it before 4.. we can ask around right before leaving and see what people want.

Ron 06-23-2011 12:59 PM

we wanna save time on the cruise back bc there is another meet sunday morning

Remember, we are actually meeting about an hour north of Houston, so make sure to account for that time.
