I got hella board the other day and started to just look at random things online. I came across a "front mount air intake". Basically, it looks like an intercooler but instead of an intercooler it is an air filter. What do you guys think of this? What would the major pros and cons be? I do realize that water would be one of the major ones, that is a given...

Dang Tony You took my word man. I said that awhile back when some posted a pic of one of those. IMO the intake is only for ricers. And the biggest con would be hydrolocking your motor. Your chances of doing that is huge. Plus I think those come with this plastic screen thing that goes over the front to protect from dirt and rock chips all that crap, but by putting a plastic cover over the front what happens? You're not getting any ram air into your intake.
