Limp mode CAI
Question. I have a AEM CAI that i want to get rid of as I'm tired of getting limp mode issues due to rain/water hitting it on the front. It came with the car so I didn't install it nor do I have the old parts.
I came across the R2C intakes and am considering buying it. Here's the issue, I don't have any of the stock parts from the oem setup. Will I need any of the OEM stuff to install the R2C setup or is it stand alone?
Is there any other options considering I don't have any of the stock parts? I'm assumg I'd have to buy an air box and the tubing if I went another route???

Trust me I'd love to. As I said I didn't install the CAI to begin with.... Nor did the guy I purchased the car from provide me with the OEM parts.
Thank you! My vehicle is a 2004 (non revup), will that air box work? The Z-tube and airbox would be all I need to get going and rid of this CAI?
Here's a link for the oem revup. This and a z-tube have proven to be the most effective intake.

How much do you want for your short ram and what is it?

I'm surprised you haven't gotten it wet or had any issues as mine sits directly exposed to the elements.
When you say take a little but off you're talking a few inches or do you mean cutting the tubing far enough so it sits up on top of the motor?

No it has the shielding on the wheel wells and the guard from underneath but I still seem to manage to get it wet through the front of the bumper whenever it rains with any significance as THAT part is virtually wide open.

Will the aem intake by-pass valve help any? http://www.aemintakes.com/search/pro...x?prod=20-403S
I ordered one of these filter wraps and we'll see how it goes when it gets here.
