Default i have a third, small hole in my fsport intake. normal?

Hi, i just received a new F-Sport intake from seawell. I know its supposed to have 2 big holes on the sides, but I also have a third small hole on the bottom. Is this normal? There isn't a hole like this in the stock intake, so i'm not sure. I figured it may be to let water out if any collects in there, since its at the lowest point, but hopefully someone can help.

Don't know for sure but i bet its supposed to be there, I thought the stock intake did have a hole. I've seen this before on other boxes.

It's a water drain. In case you get water or condensation in the airbox.

Hey, does the upper section of the box have the carbon filter like factory one?

it comes with a different filter in the box - looks just like a K&N except its blue! - of course..


the sound from 3000rpm at WOT is so addicting, none of my friends believe all that comes from just a intake upgrade!
