I just made my short ram into a tru CAI (bumper), my car also being a little lowered and where i live floods quite a bit during rainy season, ive ordered an AEM bypass valve, just wondering where everyone has them? I'm thinking of putting mine as the first coupler right off the TB to my intake tube....is that a good spot? or should i do it somewhere towards the middle of the tube?

Above the water level is all you really need.

I think I can remember those not working worth a dam though...



Paying someone to install parts and bragging about it being fast, is like watching someone bang your wife and being proud to raise their kids.

unless you're driving your car in 10" or more of water, it's going to do nothing. and if you ARE doing that, you have more to worry about than your car, because the 10" of water would probably be in your house.

ya know if your air filter is in the engine bay where it belongs you wouldn't have that problem?

This, and those bypass valves put a chamber in the middle of you pipe, completely @!#$ up your flow.

Im telling you guys youre doing it wrong. You need to take the hood off. And put a cone facing straight-up to catch the air and rain. Just flop a floor mat over it in the rain.
