"The bypass valve is key to saving your engine from water damage. The only problem is it breaks every year from vibrations and normal wear and tear but other than that it does its job keeping water out of my engine."

"By relocating your air filter under your front bumper, you put your engine at risk. This is really cheap insurance agaist water getting into your engine. But, this thing is thin and cheaply made. It's a good thing it installs easliy because it will last you about a year before the engine heat and vibration rip it in half and you gt to put on a new one, just like I get to do every year. Don't bother with the instructions, I think they are in Chinese. Just look at one in a photo, cut your pipe and put it on. If you can tie your shoes, you can install this."

"I wish they had told me about this when I bought the intake. I incurred additional expense by having to pay the mechanic to do the work twice. Otherwise I'm very happy with the increased performance of the intake and exhaust."

"I had to look online to find what the bypass valve looked like after instillation. It was easy to install but I didn't use the instructions that much in the installation."

"I got my bypass valve and installed it very easy. I only wish they would make the pipe out of the same material as the intake. My old one cracked throwing the idle off because it was before the mass air flow sensor, thus allowing more air to come in, usually not a bad thing, but threw the idle off. Everthing else is good, just use metal instead of plastic."

"this aem bypass valve is a must have item for your hard earned investment. the install is easy and the directions are very detailed and easy to follow. why take a chance with hydro-lock, when this product protects against all elements. autoanything has the best price and fastest shipping on the net and i've done alot of shopping around. rest assured next time you're driving in the rain or snow that you are protected with the best, j. cox, oklahoma city,ok"

"Definitely a must have for rainy weather. The instructions were sort of unclear where to cut the intake. Had to go the AEM's website find out exactly where to cut the intake."

"I have a lowered honda civic with a full cold air intake so my filter sits about 1.5 inches off the ground. when it rains here you have no choice but to drive through puddles that are at least that deep so the bypass valve prevents my engine from flooding. If you are installing a new intake system the installation of the bypass is just as easy as the gasket would be."
