Default problem with my CAI

i have a CAI intake w/ a bypass valve, the only problem is that my filter fell off while i was driving and i ran it over. will my car run any worse without a filter? i am getting a new filter, i was just concerned if it was ok to drive my car until my new filter arrives?

Don't drive your car without a filter. If you get any pebbles sucked into your IM, you'll be sorry. Just get a ride to a parts store and pick up a new one.
