There are a ton of people that have them...

You shoupd be ok. It has a filter like any other induction system to catch the dust. You will probably have to clean it more oftern. As far as water the way the system is designed it really picks up little if any rain.

When leaning the filter, I ran water straight into it from the kitchen faucet. I was very surprised to see no water got through the filter. It works like a charm.

I think the Vararam website would probably be your best bet for ordering. Their website is http://vararam.com/
They claim 20-30 horsepower increases. I have one and like it alot. The throttle response is better.

I just installed mine tonight with Ted's tune. I had some issues getting the sleeve on the throttle body and the intake to line up perfectly. When you get on it a beast growls under the hood. Anyone have pictures of how it should look? Did you use bolts to secure the intake?
