For those of you that have installed aftermarket intakes on your trucks: What do you do to keep it from sucking in water in rainy weather?

Thanks,

Just drive. My fenderwells are cut out and no problems.

It doesn't rain much here in PHX but I was wondering if maybe I should get a bypass valve for my intake. Any opinions?

Plenty of rain here in the summer and no probs

Do you supose there might be some kind of long term side effects from water over time?

It's not the intake I have a problem with.. its the Alternator! for it being located all the way on the bottom on the 96 version.. .everytime I go through a deep puddle my engine dies...

jeezus man, the filter would have to be submerged in water to cause a prob.

so unless your in a flash flood you dont have a prob ;(

Yeah ... just leave the damn hood closed and don't put a garden hose inside your filter and you should be fine...
