ok i have searched so dont bash on me i work 3 jobs so call me lazy on the whole search engine but here it goes

i was wandering if when i install the aem bypass valve will it work if i stick it on the maf sensor i noticed alot of members have it between the battery and the maf sensor but i just dont want to have to cut my intake tube all over again thanks and if you need pics of my cai i will post on request or you can check on my car domain in the sig thanks for all the help

the reason why its by the battery is because if your CAI sucks in water the AEM bypass will not let water get to the TB but if you put the AEM bypass on the TB you might as well just not have one.

You can put the bypass valve anywhere that will be higher than the water level. although I would definately put it before the maf sensor just incase the bypass valve let's some air throughit the MAF will still be able to meter that air.

it should be fine if you stick it right on the MAF. Note the key word here is fine, as I have never directly tried it before. Just make sure it fits your piping and whatnot.

alright thanks i was figuring that because when some one installs an sri the filter goes on the maf as i recall lol thats the way i had my sri for 8 months no probs thanks for all the help guys
