    Don't they make special MAP sensors for boost applications? I have seen them for the GM stuff but wasn't sure about the Fords. Surely there is something considering the supercharger kits that are available for the trucks.

    I was going to do this for my son on his Integra but, if you are driving on a wet road, doesn't the filter get water soaked?

    X2! (y)

    the exhaust is just perfect! trans am racing stuff right there :bouncy:



    That's Jay's(mavdog71) car so you'll have to ask him.

    But we live in southern California so we rarely get rain anyways.

    I dont know about the integra...does it have a splash shield in the inner fender?

    My thunderbird has one, that prevents the water getting into the filter.

    KNN also has prefilter's that work great with real cold air intake systems. They block out most of the really big stuff...
