As most of you will be aware if you change the standard air filter to a K&N induction kit they sit very low and close to the ground making it very easy to suck up water going though large puddles or floods.

I have been wondering for a while now, would it make any difference to performance would you get heat soak or anything else to consider if i was to cut the pipe and move it up closer to the inlet manifold. This would stop alot of worry as i live out in the country there are alot of floods and large puddles in the winter time.

Any advice would be welcome

On my 205 GTi6 I had one coming straight off the throttle body on the end of a 3" piece of samco hose.

Brought my china it came with a K&N off the standard down pipe off the throttle body was not happy due to winter time so here is what i done put it just off the throttle body during the winter due to wet weather and standing water. 75 degree samco hose worked a treat . dont really advise it in when the weather gets warmer. idealy i never sourced a standard air box in the end.

mine ( a bomz cone off of a 2.0 mondeo :/ )is just stuck straight onto the throttle body, no pipe or nothing lol. in the future i will most likely be relocating the battery and abs and making some sort of box to stop heat soak and get a decent cold air feed.
