I was thinking about getting a CAI for my Alero for a few reasons.
I wanted to get one so I can use it at the track. I also wanted to upgrade my WAI for the street. My question is: Does anybody use these on the street in regular street conditions, like rain and snow. I'm worried about the intake sucking up water. I know that it happens if you drive thru a deep puddle, but what about driving in a driving rain or snow storm? |
cold air induction? mines been on since july. rain, snow, leaves blwing around. u name it. not a problem
|
no probs here been on since the spring and it's been pretty sloppy around here and no problems.
|
Same here, u shouldn't have ne problems. I live in Pittsburgh, all summer it rained and now it hasn't stopped snowing and mine is fine. I got mine from fdp performance and it came in 1 week and their customer service is great. The guy there answers any questions u have usually that day. Here's a pic of mine installed.

same here, i have a cai on my ride and have never had a problem with water, snow or anything
|
I live in Ohio had mine for about 6 months been through snow rain everthing and had no problems. Make sure you get a good filter like K&N.
|
I've had mine on for approx. 9 months, I drive through quite a variety of elements up here and it's been completely fine.
You have nothing to worry about. |
What kind of intakes do y'all have? I know that r53silver91s has a FDP.
My WAI is just some no-name with a ractive filter |
Most have the 1 from APoC, doctorspeed.com, or made their own for about $60, its in the how to section, and most everyone who has done that have been happy with it.
|
The one I have is FDP, but FDP is supplied by APOC. so they are same.
|
FDP, it only took 5 days to get mine and the sound is priceless!
|
I got mine from DrSpeed. It took 5 days to get here. Sounds great. No problems through rain or snow. Gotta love the cai
|
I made my civic intake for about $65 on my alero... had it on at least a year here in Indiana, thre snow two winters and enough rain, didn't go through and deep deep puddles like a foot or something crazy, But who would..... you shouldn't have to worry about it unless your tring to float across some puddle :) good luck!
