Default people on the acura-tl.com forums seem to love it

I read a test online where they hooked up an NSX air box to some long piping and submerged the whole cone in a tank of water. No water made it into the engine. Does AEM make anything for Audi?

Default AEM Bypass valve

I believe it's available as a separate part, so you should be able to put it on any intake pipe you want, assuming your diameters match up. Good luck

Default It's a bypass valve,that will open if a restriction occurs (clogged or wet filter.) The valve is

surrounded by flapper valves that will open and take in air . Also has a foam sleeve over it to act as some protection/filtration. They make it in a few different diameters and can be added to any set-up of diameters and space allow.
