Any long 'cold' air intakes (injens, g3, etc) will have the chance of water getting to the filters. I have the Injens and Im very pleased with them but my car is not a daily driver so it doesn't see any water. I know I'm just beating a dead horse here but if your worried about water soaking up through your filters then just go with the short ram intakes or just throw in the k&n's in there. In regards to hp and tq, with all these intakes out there, we're only talking about minimal gains either way around. There isn't 'one' special, revolutionary, magical intake that is above all other intakes. In my opinion there all the same. In the end, it just personal preference trying to squeeze out those extra 4-6 hp and not ""20-30hp"". Just my 0.2 cents.

Explain to me how water can get to the Gen3's?? Unless you think your car is a submarine. I would have to say the Gen3's are going to get about as wet as a SRI which has been proven is the worst type of intake to buy. As for the gains there have been several dynos showing the Gen3 adding 10-15hp maybe more on a stock Z.

AHAHAH Said "car is a submarine". Agree tho. I have GEN 3's and the sheild is pretty good I have check my filters after I washed the car and there where not wet.. And mositer will not go through the filters Like he said you would litterally have to be under water to have issues. I would be more worried about the INJENS that go down by the fender wells.
