I have mine done since 2018, I live in England and it rains everyday, yet I have had no incidents of flooding, not sure how you manage to flood your car. The car is nice, perhaps can benefit from cleaning up and a bit cosmetic tidying up.
Did you plug up the resonator hole in the firewall after adding your aftermarket intake? The cars without the resonator have a solid plug you can get to delete it.
In right hand drive markets the sound generator port is on our passenger side footwell, and as far as I know our drainage comes down the centre of the windscreen wiper cowling, so it doesn't really drip right onto the sound generator port. It's a good video Joe, brings attention to a pretty bad design for LHD markets.
That gasket is available for replacement. Yes, at this age, if you're interrupting the interface, the gasket needs specific attention to how well it seals or should be replaced with a new one. I deleted it and capped that port when I supercharged my 3.0si. The gasket was thoroughly dried out.
Supercharged? Wow! Is heat a problem with your set up? What kit are you running? I’ve been seriously looking into one but not sure if I’d be with it with my auto box
@@TheRealToybox ESS G1 supercharger, custom intake, dual water methanol injection (pre SC and pre throttle body, modified Vortech pulley 82mm for about 11.5 psi. And a lot of little stuff. Not done yet... 😎 I've got a 6spd manual.
A friend is running pretty much a mirror of my setup on his auto. He has been having some issues with his auto when running more than 10psi though.... I think it's a tuning issue though.
@@trololazore it’s not being bitter it’s copy write and it had my signature on it. If this video was downloaded by someone else, reuploaded and monetised I’m sure he would be pissed off too. Ridiculous reply to the comment. Stealing is stealing end of.

The wind shield drains are just above the soundgenerator wall outlet. If your drain tube is gone then yeah it drains on top of the sound tube.

We’ll I did mine 3 years ago and there’s nothing wrong. I park mine indoor and drive only in dry summer days. Car sounds 10 times better
I’ve been thinking about getting an Afe intake for my 3.0si Coupe to.
In my honest opinion it didn’t do much besides sharpen throttle, maybe a little more low end torque and make my backfires a lot more dramatic
@@TheRealToybox thanks for the honest review 👍
Why are you using my old Z4MC as your profile pic. Would appreciate it if you would change it asap, it had my sig on it…
Sure.
@tomscott88 why do you have to be a bitter old man? You sold your coupe get over yourself. Your work will be forgotten instead of remembered
