It will definetly help. I'm a mechanical/hydraulic engineer by day and I was trying to come up with a solution to that myself. The idea of the mesh is what I initially thought of as well. To work correctly you would need a mesh that will permit relativly unimpeded airflow but will block water. This is a very interesting problem and I'm going to experiment with different sized meshes and try to find one that water will pour over and not through. It's just a matter of finding the right size holes. I'll let you know if I come up with anything.
BTW - That's why all the baffles in the stock fender airbox. --------------------  |
