I also live in Chitown. I got Frankencar and no problem. I also do not agree with your statemant that Ingen is the best intake for the money. lot of people on the board are not happy. it suck too much hot air and pipe gets hot too.

With that plastic guard thing under the bumper, I don't think any snow will get into the Injen filter. It seems to be well protected from all the elements. I havn't had any problems with rain, just don't go through any deep standing water.

Not sure which intake is the best for the money, but I like my Injen!! BTW - I know about snow...I live in Wis.!
