If you have the stock air intake system, you should not be getting water on the filter just by driving in the rain.

Just curious, what "tri-state area" are you in.

the stock airbox shouldnt be close to water at all...the filter isnt what you shoudl worry about when you go through puddles..its the opti that you must worry about when it rains....
