My CAI is at the bottom of the engine bay and water does not get to where it can be submerged. Our roads suck here and we have the 3rd most rainy days in the US. You really don't have to work about it, mine gets a little wet but it doesn't suck any water up.


I dunno.. I have studied the engine bay while I had my radiator & header out, and there was definately ways water could get to where I wanted to put it (under the battery). I am not saying you're wrong 3, but I don't want my filter to get even a little wet.
