I'm writing from home. We'll be open on Monday and I welcome you all to try and get 20 buyers to get the lower price.

Thank you all again for your tremendous support of a great product from VARIS.

this is a very nice looking peice but what about people with daily drivers who's Zs unfortunately see rain? i noticed the cudt wasnt actually connected to the filter but doesnt this still run the risk of water in the filter or the engine bay?

3 Months and counting from today...

If your worried about hydro locking your engine, i wouldnt worry about it. Your filter has to be submerged before your engine will shut down. I had my CAI in drenching rain and through puddles.. no hydrolock !

Got my order in....

Don't worry about hydrolock unless you submerge the front of your car. You can't get enough water through that duct to cause a problem.

If you're really worried, just put a mesh screen with some sort of filter element in there to soak up water...but I feel that will pretty much negate any small effects of this mod.

(Or you can put your car on the rag like someone else mentioned... )

i suppose, i doubt its a worth while performance increase, more cosmetic then anything.
