Thanks. Trying to find out why she kills in a hard turn now. Something to do with the power steering I take it. Floor pans need to be replaced from the firewall to the end of the trunk, other stuff to patch/repair is that horrid roof and convert to hardtop and the doors and panels.
there are oiless filters as well but i find them to collect dirt. As far as CAIs sucking up water, there are bypass valves (hydropurge valves) built to go between the two pipes. it doesnt get out all of the water but it helps.

Yea I’m gonna replace it. I need to order a good one and a new seal from Rockauto.com. I’ve never seen one damage like this one…
Air does seem to have less drag going through a smooth pipe rather a plastic collapsing pipe though. I find that most cheap CAI and SRI’s which increase flow also lets dirt particals through more and causes your oil to dirty faster from what I’ve experienced. Keep the airbox, it’s great insulation, I’ve lined mine with insulation and sealed it off so none of it breaks loose into the filter. I would fabricate smooth pipes running into the box and out the box to your throttle body as well for a smoother flow, but thats a project on it’s own.
But yea. I love the drop in K&Ns, they are a lifetime filter are they not?

Yea. I havent ruled out the transmission. I would love to. I was thinking it was the splines too because the noise was pretty loud and aggressive from inside the car. I’ve also noticed that when I took the outboard side out, the shaft slides in and out the inboard, the boot didnt extend or retract and grease was coming out of it where the shaft exits.
