i was under the assumption of the numerous posts and stories of sucked up water during heavy rains that we decided that cai's were a no-no.

cai are fine it just depends how far down the filter ends up and how retarded you are to drive in really deep water

Or just run the stock airbox with a drop in filter. Guess where the stock one gets air from, THE FENDER!!! It will work better than any SRI

all i did with mine was open it up and change the filter to the k & n

i was thinking about doing that too....but i wanted to run a reg aluminum intake pipe (not 3" but smaller) from the box to the tb...then possibly enlarge the opening that goes to the fender well....now that im not going away to school i will have the free time to look at that...how much are k&n drop-ins?

dont waste your time with the piping. The only thing it is good for is making more noise. The pipe will heat soak more than stock and it does not matter how big the pipe is, it still has to funnel down to the throttle body

So is this something you all think I should try?
Do the cons outweigh the pros?
Would I have to avoid driving this car in super cold weather if I decide to do this? I'm reading ice in the intake and that does worry me.

Thanks guys. You know I'm a newbie at all this. I need direction

Just be careful and you will be fine.
