| Junior Member | I bought an Injen cold air intake and an AEM air bypass valve thinking that it would work just fine. When I was reading the instructions for the bypass valve, it said that you couldn't use it on other brands. My question is, will it work like it was designed on my injen or should i leave it off. The tube diameters are the same. |

As long as the diameters match up, you'll be fine. An intake is an intake- all the aftermarket ones are just tubes with filters on the end. | |

| Senior Member | personally i've never liked the bypass valve because it doesn't actually work unless your entire filter is put in a pool of water. it doesn't work if some of the filter gets wet. because they claim it works due to atmospheric change, and atmospheric change does occur unless the filter is under water. |

| Member of the 20 nut club | thats why i went with the Icebox its tested at 4x the max vacume your engine can create at WOT and it still doesnt suck up water .... only way to make it suck up water is to forge a river at 40mph .... hell this is not "Oregon Trail" |
