Our shop car build should be starting pretty soon.. Looking forward to the AGP twin S256 turbos, 417ci (10.6:1 compression), TH400, Strange S60 rearend, DSS carbon shaft, DSS axles, Pfadt suspension, Squash dual fuel system = lots of boost, lots of C16, and maybe some giggle juice

It will be... No worries!

The filter location is perfectly fine. Kevin @ AGP has run numerous hard Arizona rains, and I'm sure if we ask CamaroRJT here he's seen the Florida terrible rains since the car left (We had a doosy today!).

Good to go and I'll be driving my car as much as I possibly can daily so I'll let you know, I'm more concerned with 15" M&Hs in the rain than two air filters

before u said they were going to be run higher?
granted i know the water would have to up the drivers door before it is real problem.. but the saw mill river parkway does flood so bad they close it when it rains..

They have 60* adapters on them coming up from the turbo to stay away from the water.

Very familiar with the Saw Mill actually.. And yes I know how bad it does get up there flooding wise.. Corvette's with a low cold air scoop on them would be lower than where these filters are.

i moved a hour north but my girl still leaves off there so always there.. why I never did cold air intakes on my cars..
but that is no big deal. can always figure way to run pipes higher if worried..
though i havent gone thru a deep puddle (pond lol) in decades..

Im waiting on Stingray one..

You would be getting water into the floor boards and have bigger issues if you get the filters underwater.

This kit is going on my '13 Trans Am. Joe at Cordes sold me on it in about three emails over five minutes. Question: what best to put on the shaker hood? "Turbo Trans Am?"
