and just for the record the throtle body has hot hot coolant running throgh it so what happens to your cold air when it gets there ?Well it gets hot just like if you had a sri with out the chance of hydrolocking , but it looks good nice job
2 things. how much water do you think goes thru the hole. not much. i want you to try something next time you go eat out. get a drink and take your straw and half way put it in the drink. so half of the bottom of the straw is in liquid and half is in air. now start sucking. water weighs less than water so the water will not be sucked up. now if the filter is fully submerged then you are screwed. i have had this done for quite some time and have had no problem. dont try to make yourself think that your purchase is better than the competition. even if you have a damp filter you will not hydrolock. you could dip the filter in water then put it on your intake and you would be fine.

Also with the throttle body having hot coolant running thru comment. mine does not. i have done the throttle body bypass. so that arguement is quickly gone. anyways the air goes thru the throttle body so quick it cant warm up that much. do you know why the throttle body has hot coolant running thru it?
