By-pass valve..?

I want to order one, but what should i put in the section of "Vehicle Info"?


Anywho, can i place the By-pass valve anywhere on the intake? I know cut it in the middle, but does it matter where exactly in the middle?

Looks like you have the one-piece Injen intake, so what you want to do is cut the pipe halfway between where the bend is and where it goes through the hole in bottom of your engine bay. Here's a pic of mine.

I have AEM too, but the type-s and yours are differnt. But im sure its doesnt matter if I put the bypass in the same place as you did.
But thats seems easy...

Crzy, look at my website and to see more pics. You just need to cut right after the tube bends.

Crzy, you don't need a bypass valve. Just put a small bucket underneath your intake.

BTW, good luck with the cutting. Your intake and engine's life depends on it!

I would assume there is more than one size b/c AEM has more than one diameter.
