Anybody know if this one comes with a water ingestion preventer? If it does, I'm in.

Bijou-MP5 said:no, they don't come with it, you have to purchase it seperately(about $40), but i'm sure Captain KRM can get you one for good price
What say ye, Cap'n? How much for an air bypass?
AEM doesn't have any for Mazda listed on their site. Are they even available?

I was referring to the Air Bypass valve, not the CAI assembly.

ok I just got off the phone with AEM. here's what they said;
1) they generally try to avoid group buys and prefer to sell directly through wholesellers, no special pricing etc.
2) the technician does not know if this part number applies to both engines. there is nothing in his computer telling him otherwise, so he either feels that it fits BOTH engines or just the 2.3 liter. the tech sounded surprised "you mean there are TWO different engines on the Mazda3?"
3) the technician didn't have access to the instructions on these intakes yet.
all of this leads me to question the ebay seller - a salesperson at my distributor led me to believe that direct reselling of AEM parts on ebay is a violation of thier vendor sales agreements so whoever is selling these intakes on ebay either has a F&F style hookup or is a vendor potentially violating thier agreement with AEM.
edit update - called Injen and got the run around from thier electronic operator
sent them an email as well.

I'm going to call at the end of the week or on next monday to see if there is anyone else over at AEM i can talk to or if they have better information at that point. I wouldn't trust the guy on ebay - I'd like to shoot him an email and ask him some questions about what he is selling. According to the AEM tech and salesman however, this is for the 2.3 and was tested/being tested on a hatchback model (which comes with nothing but the 2.3)Dave2521 said:
