I have the perfect option available for you. Foreign contaminates are a serious concern when weighing the pros and cons of a cold air intake system. As many aftermarket cold air intake systems are relatively open, they do not offer near as much protection from the elements in comparison to factory air boxes.
However, element containment factors were strongly taken into consideration with the Airaid MXP Cold Air Intake System part # AR200-285 as the majority of the air filter is surrounded by a plastic shield while providing specific openings for maximum airflow. This in turn will provide you with a clean cold air supply resulting in power gains.
