Engineered to add horsepower and reduce restriction compared to OEM air intakesAll AEM Air Intakes come with a lifetime DRYFLOW Synthetic air filter with great filtrationGuaranteed for the life of your car or truckManufactured in the USA
AEM makes a CAI bypass valve so if the end of the intake is submerged, the valve opens to bypass the intake higher up where it is (hopefully) not submerged.
The cheapest route is to buy an intake on ebay, then measure the filter it comes with, throw it away, and use the K&N measurement chart to determine what K&N filter is the correct sized replacement part and order that filter. I would guess that route will cost you ~$100 or so, and some time doing research.
You have a MAJOR problem if you live in California and a few other states though, which is that the replacement intake must be carb legal to be driven on the street. Nearly no intakes on ebay are carb legal, and the ones that are include ones some built by AEM and some Injen varieties.
At the end of the day, the cheapest, sure fire thing that won't take a lot of time and fit correctly and securely and is high quality and Carb Legal and look nice and properly engineered to actually work is to just buy the AEM piece. AEM part number 22-417B is likely what you want, and its $121 on amazon, sold by amazon.
Otherwise, if you want to spend the money, the AEM 24-6017C cold air intake and bypass valve will cost you $300.
