If you read my post you would see I said Stillen probably fixed their original issue of a poorly mfg product on their first attempt. Since then they went back and improved on it with the G3 version. It was more a bit of history.

No one hear has reported a full on hydro locked engine that was toasted. A bit of water is going to get into either one and yes, more with Injen due to location.

Cleaning the filter should be done on every oil change and the bumper mounts can only take so much before it starts to show with misaligned lines. The Stillen filters can be accessed thru the top cover.

This is not a peeing match as you are making it out to be. If you read my post I said the OP was making a good decision with Stillen. So yeh, coming from an Injen owner I advocate Stillen as the better product......I gaveup (haha pun intended), you won...happy now.
Oh, I really wasn't trying to argue you in any way. Sorry if it came out like that. I just hear people in general complaining about stuff like this and I just don't see the big deal in most cases.

Is a yearly removal of the front bumper really all that bad for ******* up the fitment over time (cleaning g3)?

No worries, my apologies for being an arse. I am not one for lashing out. You have every right to express your opinion and call it like you see it. CAI 's have always been a big debate. Issues can be found with many of them and overall it 's not a big deal.
