AEM Bypass trouble
I am trying to install a AEM 3" Bypass Valve on an Injen Cold Air Intake for a 07 TC, the problem is that after putting on the bypass valve, the intake does on fit right anymore, it hits the fender and the only way it would fit is if it does pop out of the fender, how do i solve this problem?

You solve the problem by not putting the bypass valve in!
The only way you are going to have a problem with water coming into your intake is if you submerge the entire front of your car, then your intake will be the least of your problems.

Yea you would need to trim to fit it on a Injen intake cause there's just a tad too long without trimming it. You really don't need the bypass unless you are always driving into a lake where the whole filter is submerged in water. Forget the bypass.

Why does the misconception that the whole filter needs to be submerged still exist? You don't need a gallon of water to push a rod out the side of the block-- even on our lower compression engines, you need about 4 tablespoons.
Seems to me that cutting the $250 noisemaker is reasonable compared to the cost of a new engine replaced out of warranty.
