im wondering if i should bother putting the fender liners in. my teg is not my DD and it never driven in the rain. i know my CAI will like that i ditch the liners.

how many people are driving around without them?

 

i drive w.o them (kinda). theyre just all torn up. but i got a short ram so its a mute issue on the CAI. put em back in and ur engine bay wont get so dirty tho.....

 

yeah, good idea about keeping it clean

 

he he personal experience my friend...

 

i dont like CAI's, i have seen about 15 blow there motors sucking up water with them, but if you dont drive in the rain you should be alright i think, but if it just so happens to rain when you are out, i would pull over and take the CAI off, my opinion

 

i will be cutting my intake soon into 2 pieces. if i were ever to be out and it were to rain, i could change it so a short ram

 

well you sir apparently are 2 steps ahead of me, lol

 

yeah, cold airs are stupid imo. i will take the 1.3 hp loss and just run a short ram..hell, mine is just a filter clamped to the throttle body. (because someone broke into my car and stole my short ram) short, long, nothing, really no power difference imo. i'm sure some people will swear a cold air produces 50 more hp but i seriously doubt it.


point of the story. (sorry for the rant) get a short ram( or make one with what you got) then you have the option of fender liner or not. i haven't ran them on the last 2 honda's i have had. for some damn reason when i bought them they weren't on.

 

Ditch The Liners & Cut the Intake IMO.

 

....the shorter version of my original reply.
