AEM SRI installed, quiet until 4500rpm's and then it growls, +2 mpg, not really noticeable diff in performance other than the gas mileage

I have a 2001 civic dx and am looking into intakes right now. My brother referred me to the V2 intake, but I was wondering how low to the ground the V2 filter is compared to any CAI filter, and the probability of it messing up my engine.

unless you drive through 2ft+ puddles, you will not mess up your car with an aftermarket intake. the v2 intake directly left of the engine, where the stock airbox currently lies. the cai would lie lower, most likely in the front bumper of the car

slim to none if you follow the install directions. i messed up my car pretty BAD because i didn't take all the packing peanuts out of the intake before installing it... oh boy was that hell lol

you won't have problems. like i said, splashing water on the intake won't kill your engine; completely submerging it will. also, many people on this forum live in areas of constant snow and have an intake.

im probably going to order another CAI out of ebay and just get an aem dryflow. intake tubing is not going to make a diff IMO. but im getting the two piece design, so i can swap between CAI and SRI whenever it rains.
