lol yea... when i told my parents that no water wont get into it...unless u drive through deep puddles and my dad was like oh great lol...my car doesn't chug as much anymore either which is good.... i still need that blasted cat. fixed though... i would just put a straight pipe...but dont have a way of bending the metal nor welding... so its gotta wait a little longer...

 

remove the cat and take it to an exhaust shop.....then just tell them you need one solid piece of pipe the same length and bent the same as the cat......depending on where you live they might not do it though

 

well they dont have e-check here so... they might... still dont have a way to weld it though

 

so clamp it....tell them that you want the pipe to be 6inches shorter then the stock cat. pipe...then....cut off the end of the cat that has the flange....get a 4inch piece of pipe that has the same inner diameter as the outter diameter of the new pipe...then just clamp the flange piece and the new pipe together using the 4 inch piece as a sleeve.....then do the same for the other end...

or just go out and get a high flow cat/resonator off of ebay for about 60.00

 

Looks good man! Yeah, I have my CAI sitting about an inch lower than that.. if you stand back about 10 feet from the car, you can see 1/2 the filter... I've not had any problem with mine. I actually slapped it on there when we had those horrible rainfalls a few months back.. Drove through water-covered roads, no problems.. I would imagine you need to have like the entire filter emerged in water before you run into problems.. Thats why AEM makes the bypass valve for that type of thing.. so if the filter *does* become emerged, its damn near impossible for the water to get past that valve.. None the less, looks good and I might acutually think about doing that with mine so I can put a hood prop back on there! Haha..

 

i always take the hood prop off of my cars....its alot nicer to just flip the hood all the way open, and alot of people ask me how i can do that

 

be careful ur not under the hood wen teh wind blows :P they blow down

 

oh i know...its happened a few times....now i just keep an eye on it when its windy
