    BAT guys, need a huge favor/pics

    I've been searching around for a while, and even pm'd a few of you. I want to go BAT BAD, but I want to avoid getting too custom. My only concern at this point is how and where to run the TIP. I'm going with Unitronic's software so I'll be retaining the (or a) 'factory' MAF, probably updade to a VR, and I dont want to stick the air filter down real low; I live in Oregon and we get lots of rain which equals lots of standing water. So what I'd like to ask is if you guys could post pictures of your setups as they are driven. I'm mainly trying to pinpoint which would be the best manifold for what I'd like to do, and how the different TIP's are set up.

    I really appreciate it.

    Question for Winston...could you run your set up with the filter higher up on the car?

    I'm sure it rains in Vancouver as much as it does where you are and I have no issues with the rain.

    For me to suck enough water up through the filter and have the compressor push it through the intercooler, up the pipes and into the engine I'd have to be doing some serious speed and hit a pond.

    You can run the air filter anywhere you want. The best location for my setup was there where the sidemount intercooler used to be. The filter is also protected from water due to the angle of the lower part of the S4 bumper which goes upwards from the back to help deflect any water that might splash on the front of the car.

    Actually I think you get more rain then I do. I just want to have the least amount of risk as possible. I guess once I ditch SAI I'll have much more room to play with
