Default Intakes?

Hey guys well was going to order the injen until someone told me its very easy to get wet?? well i know it can get wet but its not going to mess up if you hit a lil water on the road? I heard that if there is a lot of water than it might suck because my sister has the injen on her ralliart and nothing happens when she goes in the rain....
another question which one sounds better (if anybody gots video please post)
Injen or the Nismo ( on the 350z)

Maybe 1 in 5,000 long intake users have ever experienced hyrolock. If you are leary, get a bag to go over the filter.

I have the injen cai and it has worked great for me... you just have to make sure that your front bumper does not become submerged... You just have to avoid the large puddles in the rain and you will be fine! The JWT pop charger is also a popular intake on the forums... do a search and you will find very valuable information

I dont think the year matters because the engine is the same. I installed a AEM cai on my 06 350 and I am pleased with it.

I like the Injen. You'd have to go through a pretty big puddle of water in order to submerge the bumper(unless you're lowered a lot).
