yea im gonna change my oil tomorrow...mobil 1 i cant remember what kind to use though i forgot...i ran it for about an hour and then drove it around and it runs just fine but im going to change my oil just to make sure...as far thinking that i spun a bearing no...at first i thought that i had thrown a rod cause the same thing happen to my integra type r and i could see the hole in the block where the a/c compressor used to be...but i couldnt find anything out of the ordinary on my f20 block...so i calld taka and he told me what i should do and thats what i did and it worked...as far as how much water i sucked in...it didnt look like a whole lot but you could clearly see it when you took the throttle body off...and also when i took the intake off i would say about 20oz worth of water just spilled out all over the ground and i was like hoooooooly shit...so i put everything back on and instead of having both pipes of the intake on i just used the upper half and have it sitting behind the radiator and the fans (not too sure if thats a good idea or not...any suggestions or opinions about that anyone???)...so its a ghetto rigged short ram ha ha ha...ill take pics tomorrow and show you what i am talking about...but other than that she runs just fine aside from that whine and i know where its coming from so im gonna check that out tomorrow as well

yea i picked up the oil and i wasnt able to get the OEM honda filter so im gonna be rocking a fram...they are great though...changing all that mess tonight and im gonna make it to the meet tonight as well now and im going to try to bring those harnesses as well...im still iffy about how i have my intake set up cause well being right behind the radiator its not really pulling in cold air...granted we have our fans behind the radiator too...meh i guess that would only make the engine run like ass if i was sitting in traffic and idling for long periods of time...wish i had 200 bones so i could snag up on that comptech intake

so your car is working good right now? what was the issue?

I don't think there will be too much of a problem with running it as a short ram intake. Especially when you look at the other alternatives are

the problem was that i sucked water through the intake and into the manifold and i shut it off just in time to only have it get into the spark plug wells and not mix with the oil and get into the pistons...whew lucky on that one so i just pulled the plugs and throttle body off, cleaned out the intake manifold and dried al the water, cranked the engine to clear out the water in there and wiped that down put everything back together started it and let it run for about an hour then drove it around for about ten minutes...i drove it to work today and had no problems but i am about to change my oil and try to clean up my headlights cause there is serious condensation in my right headlight...anyone know where i can get some headlight fluid...i know that HID fluid is gonna cost more than halogen...hahahahahahaha im not serious but this woman was
