I hear ya about the floods. I lived in Glendale AZ about 30 yrs ago. Who would think that it would flood in the desert. I remember a storm in Feb that overflowed the river (can't remember the name of the river) took forever to get across the river. Any how I've only had the K&N installed for a couple of days and really haven't had a chance to test it out the way I would like. Hopefully this weekend. So far I'm happy with it and I think if I had purchased the Ingen I would be just as satisfied.

Look at the design. The Injen is actually in the fenderwell and will never
come in contact with water. The hydro shield doent hurt air flow at all.The K&N has only a little duct that lets air in and the top doesnt seal good. Also the Injen comes with new washer bottle. Injen for the win!!
Can you get me your cell number so I can run all my future mods through you for approval from now on?

What a useless post on this thread. Zero relevance to anything being discussed. There are 1000 other "Best CAI" threads out there, this isn't one of them. But hey, congrats on the +1 for your post count.

That's definitely true haha. Well, still this is an idea worth exploring. Thank you for the pic and the clarification

Red10 thanks for the insightful comments
your a fool

Here's an independent Dyno by a member
Note the HP gain at 5500 rpm It's in excess of 10hp!
with just the K&N intake. The run with the corsa gives him
a couple more.

http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showth...ht=K%26N+Corsa

Has any one done a dyno with the injen that exceeds this ?

Anyways the washer came today looks like a neat set up
won't try to put it in till Sun
going to the air show at Jones Beach today

and yes the pics are coming

Sorry, but that dyno sheet is for BOTH a K&N AND a Corsa cat-back! He did not test the K&N by itself!

Right you are John

But as we've seen the increase of HP from an
exhaust is marginal I suspect most of that gain
is from the K&N. But that is an assumption on
my part

Do you have any Dyno's of just the Injen?

Here's a pic. My first time around I used black insulation, this is the CGM
version to match paint job. Doesn't look great but more ponies is what
I'm looking for

Installed the washer yesterday. Took about 45min. I hung it from the back
of the strut housing you can't even see it unless you look for it.For those of you that are concerned about the looks of your engine this is another
advantage over the ingen no nasty water bottle front and center. here's
a pic of the kit. I actually used the pump from the stock WB. It fit right in the bag and my guess it's better quality than the one provided.Seems to work
great.I didn't cut the rubber hose so I could go back to stock easily
if needed

Hey Box, wanna post some more pics of this installed? While I don't think I'd be up for doing that weather stripping, I would think that even removing the washer bottle would have to help even without being completely sealed. Plus, I don't think I've even used the washer yet. The windows stay clean

Sure I'll post another from the side but I'm not sure there's much else to
see. If anyone who's not to confident in there wrenching skills
would like a step by step of the washer bottle removal I'd be happy to post
it. It's very easy.

I'd REALLY like a K&N or Airaid guy to try this. I don't want to sound
like a cheerleader for this project until somebody else chimes in with there
results. all I can say is it appears to really wake this car up

I just installed the Typhoon and noticed the sealing issue also. I have an LS so I have no foglights and am considering using your seal remedy along with opening the driver's side foglight and routing a tube up and connecting to the heatshield.
