Oldsman, I wish I could get my engine bay as clean as yours. How do you do it?
And I am gonna upgrade to the ID CAI when it warms up outside. I really considered it when I bought this one, but we've had soo much rain and it's expected to be the worst winter we've had in a long time. So I just didn't want to take any chances screwing my car up. I just noticed that whistle tonight... it's rather annoying but I won't care after I get my speakers hooked up and my new muffler put on this weekend.
Oh and thanks Ken

Lots of TLC i guess. actually i used gunk and CD-2 Engine detailer. And about every other time i wash the car I wash the motor too.
Well with the CAI i drove it for a winter with no problem. The main thing is you have to remember it is there and avoid all suspected big water puddles. For the winter it isn't that hard to make the ID a WAI just need another filter.

What about car washes? I'm probably gonna swap my AEM for a CAI in January or Feb. Which one do you suggest me getting?

car washs? well np ever. but yet being that i know that the filter is down there, i don't shot water down past the fog light. i always aimed it at a down ward angle.
The people who have problems with CAI are the ones who don't pay attention and are always remembering it is there.

i would go with the ID intake or AEM, that cheap ebay intake isnt going to do much for you, plus its really close to your battery.
Oh and heres my intake since everyone is showing theirs off.

Yeah, I'm gonna get the AEM probably. Might not be until spring tho. And actually, I can tell a big difference in how the car picks up speed now and the sound is awesome. I find myself turning my stereo down really low now when I'm driving just to hear it.

Deal. Just let me know when you get a CAI and I'll take the other stuff off your hands. Thanks Josh.
