Cold Air Intakes living in Florida?
 

While deciding on whether to get Stillen Gen 3 CAI or the Gen 2, I decided on the later. It rains DAILY here in FL. Check out this pic from a downpour yesterday. Just a little puddle lol

If you were living in this rainy climate, would you still go CAI long tube?

I would stick with the Gen3's

The amount of water to reach the Gen3's is about mid door on the side and well IF water reached that high? You've got bigger problems.

Gen2's imo are not all that great and so your better off slapping some K&N filters and staying stock.

In to your question? Yes

I would just stay away from injen style cai for obvious reasons.

Either way its your choice.

If you are worried about it, stay stock. You should stay clear of water like that above in any car.

I ran Stillen gen 3s in Fort Myers with no problems at all before the car was supercharged. They are up in the bumper, they are not going to see much water.

I live in st pete and been running g3's for the last two years

I would do Gen 3s but good grief that is some serious raining goin on there.

OP which part of FL you at? Thats a lot of water for a rain.

Hey ELMO I would love to see your Z once I get to visit St. Pete.

I live on the East coast, in Melbourne.. about an hour SE of Orlando. Besides the constant rain, we have poor drainage here, so when it pours the streets can flood up real quick

Yeah man, give me a shout.

Sounds like Savannah, Ga. I sold my 1990 300zxtt to a guy here. It lasted 3 months. It was driven into a flooded area and sucked water up the intake. Car was totaled due to motor being hydro-locked (bent rods). I would have bought it back and stuck a new bullet in it had I known about it. Makes me so sad still today. I miss that car. It was my dream car.

Sebring on the 29th?

No, my car isn't together but I hope to make NASA Oct 3-4 with 500+ whp!

If you deal with that kind of water on a regular basis, you need this:

Sweet, should handled the track pretty well. I'll talk to my buddy to see if he is interested in going then

Checking in from Tampa here and I've been fine with the 3rd gen. If the road's questionable at all just take a different route. Better safe than sorry.
