Default Hybrid Darinintake mod - I would like to add to what's been done....thoughts?

<center><img src="http://images.autoanything.com/images/products/large/air_intake_systems/injen_hydro.jpg"></center><p>instead of covering the hole with mesh, i am thinking about covering the filter element with injens hydroshield. while keeping the hole nice and big.

the hydro shield flows 95%+ as if the cone was naked and it is water repellent/debri deterent.

Question now is what size is the stock Audi cone filter?<ul><li><a href="http://www.autoanything.com/products/product_mvg.aspx?p_id=2582">Hydro Shield</a></li></ul>

The stock filter is flat, not a cone. I suppose you could cover the hole with it...

Default hmmmm, no offense, but you shouldnt have been driving through the puddle

i mean when you say it cominf you should have stopped and been like "wtf" and then turned around and saved yourself the worry. our cars arent nearly as weather friendly as we make them out to be. oh and btw i did the same as you and since my horns are non existent......so i am not one to talk, but the point still remains.


SEE A PUDDLE DONT DRIVE THROUGH
