GenVibe - Community for Pontiac Vibe Enthusiasts

Well here it is, my dropped vibe with tein s-techs. Also put in progress rear sway bar, lineage ground kit, and aem bypass filter.

finally dropped it. looks great!

Nice even drop! Looks great! So does it feel like a whole different car now?

Oh yeah feels totally different and i love the new feeling.

you had to cut the cai to put the aem by pass in right?

Yes it does need to be cut. I cut it right where the port comes off for the hose that does'nt even get used. When you get the bypass they give you a template to trace around the pipe so you know exactly how much to cut off. Pretty simple.

NICE... ME LIKES>>>> I got myself the injen pre-filter (hydro-sheild) and with even driving around in flooded streets.we got 3inches of rain in less than 24 hr period around here i didn't have a problem. Mind you I wasn't flying threw the streets 10-15mph tops I never had a problem.

being dropped is awesome..you notice the handling right away, even better when u get true aftermarket lowering struts

Ooh, nice, can I have your stock front grills?!?! Been looking for someone with the billet '05+ grills to see if they would be willing to part with their stockers as I have the kit with the '05+ openings and have a '04 Vibe.

could you get a close up of the by-pass valve?and the drop looks nice keithvibe, but then again you are not dropped.

Sweet looking ride. Ok change the subject what else are going to do? lol just j/kn. Realy your ride is looking good and what a difference in the ride quality when you do miner little mods....nuvibe

looks good, snow

looks nice! welcome to the club.

Here you go Cole, some better pics of the bypass valve. I actually just got done driving and noticed a difference in sound. Before the intake sound was deep, but now it is not as deep and sounds more smooth. I dont know if it is b/c of the bypass valve or something else. But i like the new sound better.

suweet!!!!!nice drop. love the s-techs. welcome to the club finally!!!

Nice drop and welcome to the club!

Oh, and what does the bypass valve do?

Protects it from water,it's a one way valve.

Ah, thanks.

ok, since i had an 03 and we are getting rid of the 04, i have to ask what the little filter is coming out from the engine cover?? i don't recall having anything like that to replace on either or our 03/04 models. is this new for the 05+?

And actually where my bypass is, that is where the port used to be. i cut it out to put in the bypass

Sorry to threadjack, but did you catch my earlier post?

Come guy hook this poor guy out. He's been looking for some stock bumper grill's for some time now. He will "WORK FOR GRILL'S" Hate to see a grown man beg. lol...nuvibe

Looks tight dude

so did you have to cut into the intake pipe for the by pass valve or did it come with instructions?
