Injen CAI in rain?

I'm wondering if I install this injen cai and will not use the bracket for best gains will this suck up water? I don't drive through major puddles and i live in a state that gets 100 degrees in summer and 5 degrees in winter. To shorten it up can I run this cai without any problems to my engine? What about a sleeve for the filter
Tahnkyou

You will actually lose power with this without a tune.

Better off with stock.

If you want the noise (which is pretty much all they do) try a short ram or GAB mod.

If you hit a large puddle, anything is possible with an intake close to the ground.

Search man.
Injen is one of the biggest wastes of time and money.

I say get a JWT Popcharger and replace the oiled filter it comes with a dry one and call it a day.

I think I'll just do GAB mod with ka and n filter or if the pop charger is super good? I'll also get nwp throttle body 75mm and intake spacers. I'll be doing this when I get new spark plugs, oil change and trans fluid change hoping to get under 6 secs 0-60 at 6.35 stock

The more water you suck in the better, Water injection increases power man.
