Not so OEM and AMS are a true CAI. These say "No Returns" also expensive. In the drawing I see no way water would not be an issue. It may have something to keep it out of your motor, but will quickly impair the volume of air that can pass through the layers of the filter after getting soaked.
Also, when you wash your car the water will instantly soak the foam. They are also blocking air flow from your radiators.
*I* would not recommend this product to any Q50/60 owner.

No dyno results posted and a whopping $100 more (less from: https://socalz.net/power-pro-engineering-infiniti-q50-3-0t-cold-air-intakes-vr30ddtt-w-hks-filters/ than the AMS intakes. On the HKS site, who makes the filter, they sell the AMS intake.. hummm

Have you seen the amount of media in the AMS intake cone? No mention from AMS at the % over stock air flow but I'd bet it matches, and in the rain, or after washing your car, they will flow a lot better.
I call BS.

With a stock tune you lose power at 2500 RPM but gain some at 5250+. Dyno: https://www.amsperformance.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Stock_red_sport_intake-1080x489.jpg

BUT with an EcuTek tune you gain all the way through the RPM rang with, 17hp peak gain. Good usable HP and torque from 4250 RPM-5250 RPM, again with a tune, where we start to fall off due to our small turbos. Dyno: RPM.

Look at the AMS page for all the dynos: https://www.amsperformance.com/cart/infiniti-q60-red-alpha-air-intake-system.html/

Thanks for the links.

It bugs the you know what out of me when someone like AMS can't line up the graphs at 5250 for HP/TQ crossing.

Only true CAI for our car:

Gonna end up with way too many bugs and dirt in the filter in a very short amount of time.
