Weather problems with OSCAI?

I just installed an Ooglie Stock CAI and I was just wondering if there are any problems with water or anything else coming into the intake from the mod?

If so, wats the best way to prevent this?

no u wouldn't not need to worry about it because:

1. ur car is not lowered
2. it's summer
3. and no one is gonna waste $$ on AEM bypass valve

best way to prevent this is get rid of ur CAI and switch back to short ram or stock.

So any of you guys with OSCAI have problems with water when it rains?

OSCAI = ooglie stock cold air intake
Its when you disconnect the tube going to the silencer box and attatch a hose from the intake setup to the front of the car.

Water would have to travel about 2 feet or so upwards to reach the intake box, im just wondering if water could make that trip, and if so if it is a problem.
