I had the air raid and did many water crossings and time in the mud. Save some money and get a CAI unless you plan on deep over the headlights type water driving.

I wonder where that rabble rouser Micah is, I have not seen much from him lately. I wonder if he has put anything else on his JK yet. I know he had some stuff to put on it, but he has not yet called me to help.

I also ran an AirRaid in Recon and never had any water issues. Have been contemplating the Volant this time around but no funds.

Jordan, he was plotting out some heat reduction schemes last we conversed, plus trying to figure out how to store all the new parts that were flowing in from the constant UPS deliveries.

If he'd put them on, that would alleviate his storage problems. It may have something to do with his having a honey do list for Jennifer's Toyota Matrix.

How messy is it when you take it out? I notice it's like the old filters (replaceable eliment). Does it flood out oil all on the engine when you remove it ??

No mess at all. I waited about an hour after I got home before changing the oil and when I pulled the filter out it didn't even drip. I guess it all runs back into the engine as soon as the motor is shut off.
