bad thing about cold air is if it rains then ur filter would be sucking on some water too.
short rams usally suck on heat from engine. haha, if u want something better, u need an air box, and a short ram that. air box to sepparat the head from the air goin into the engine

the whole hydrolocking thing imo is over emphasized.

just dont go driving through a river... and your car will be fine.
