I had a problem with the left tube rubbing the lock nut on my strut bar under load, but after some adjustment got it to clear.

If I were to do it again, I'd wrap the tubes with insulation before install.
That would look like $hit

This man speaks teh truth about Injen. Mine was pinched a lil. Nothing that would affect the total air volume.

Hmm, I thought it was the stillen that needed the widening, maybe that was only on G's. I think I might go with Injen though due to the filters. Still unsure though.

How about the way the filters sit in the bumper. Living in AZ, we are prone to flash flooding and I know that if I did make the decision to get a CAI, the Stillens would definitely be more favorable than the Injens due to the higher placement in the bumper.

actually the stillens and injens sit in about the same spot. but you will have to submerge your car in very deep water before either of these intakes caused hydro lock. but are good choices and both make good gaines.

Well I would like to believe that but out here in AZ, flash floods can emit a foot of water in very, very little time. One incident that I was in involved a flash flood that literally slowed traffic down from 40mph to about 5mph on public streets. When someone drives past you, they raise the water level around your car and for me, it was enough to get in my engine bay and even find its way to my Fujita sri's. Not a lot but I could definitely hear and smell the aftermath.

I can tell you that the stillen intakes obviously sit lower than the fujitas but in all honesty it doesn't look like its much lower... The difference in power between the fujitas and the stillen is a joke
