      Short ram intake would have the same odds as the stock air box.

      Cold air more so. Really, though, any time you're in enough water for the filter to become submerged you're already beyond where GM would cover any items anyways. You should never go through water deeper than the wheel hub.

      The fender well should shield the filter from any thrown water.
      Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall. Torque is how far the wall moves after you hit it.

      I avoid puddles, I should get a better filter though because I did get the cheapest spectre filter.

      I should have taken a picture of this 'puddle' I saw today in the parking lot where I work...

      Looked like a seemingly harmless 5'x6' puddle in the parking lot until this lady drove INTO it!!! Turns out it was a foot deep and thrashed her suspension...if any of us hit it, our goose would be cooked!!!
