Weapon-R has both a cold air box and a Dragon style intake.
Dem1k used to have one. Not certain if he still does.

if i get an aem cold air intake, and the air bypass valve will it be ok to drive daily, like through rain, snow, puddles. will it get any water in my engine? also is the aem short ram air a good intake to get or should i go with k&n typhoon? how much power will i lose from getting short ram instead of cold air, will the sound be alot different also?

From what i have read on previous forums you will loose maby 2-4 hp compared to a cai. I have heard conflicting stories about the air bypass valve and weather it is just a waste of money or if is actually usefull. most people say they can drive in many conditions without the bypass valve and havent sucked up any water with the cai.
Just my opinion but i would stay away from the typhoon- over priced and you get better lookin intake with the injen or aem.
Im getting the aem cai for my car in about a week so if you want to know what i think of it just pm me then.
Hope i helped and didnt just talk your ear off.

To answer your question, ive heard of some people who had a custom cai job done with the AUTOMATIC lancer. it required banging the AEM or INJEN intake pipe to fit wherever it is they were puting it through. NOT recommended becuz it requires an a$$ load of money and totally not worth the effort. at the end of it you will probably get LESS hp gain than the short ram(due to the banging and possibility of thinner and/or longer piping), which isnt that much less than the cai in the first place. stick with the short ram.

There is no bypass valve for the lancer intakes. Not for aem not for injen, they don't exist. aempower.com. check a bypass valve is not under there parts catalog. I was wondering if it better to make your own intake? cheaper, defintely!
