air intake

[Mr.Baca]

i wanted to put a high voulume air intake but it rains i think it is going to get soaked because the air cone is right under the hood vents any advise or should i just scracth that idea and go stock

you could try some thing like this

Stock works fine for every day driving. If you want to get the cone filter and not worrying about the rain relocate the battery to the front truck then put a 45 off the intake manifold, then the maf then the filter up where the battery was. I just did an intake straight off the intake on my 20v swap. I'll be getting a little lexan shield to go overtop of it for when it rains. I might move my battery to the front and redo the intake like how I first said.

sice i live in cali it hardley rains if i just cover up the left vent with some sor of plastic right under the vent to keep the water from coming down bad or good idea this might sound childish but i love the way the filter looks trough the vent when u walk by it

Dont wanna repeat what everybody said
but just cover it well or just put the original air intake back.......

Personnaly i put the original air intake, when its too cold outside

yea i saw the plexi thing on another fourm thing but i would also recomind getting your hands on a v6 corrolla MAF and hook it up thats what im doing but probly need to do timing also and MPG is probly going down but its worth it
