i live in New Hampshire and we get some pretty heavy rain at times. I am going to be building my AP1 for racing/street use

i will have a second car for winter and really crappy days, but not for about a year

so....

i will be driving my car in heavy rain at times and i want to know what intakes wont suck up any water and if any vented carbon fiber hoods are rain safe.

the items in question are these:

J's racing tsuchinoko intake system
Spoon carbon/kevlar air duct (current system on my car)

J's type S hood
J's type V hood
Mugen hood

any comments or feedback would really be useful

if you drive through a river (water level above 3ft) at full throttle, then yes...you will have problems.

the hoods will be fine in the rain.
