Message: [QUOTE="TARM, post: 86806, member: 578"] What happens is some have that drip rail not quite right and the water flows over it. Maybe the hood alignment is not perfect. On the hole cut in the front behind the grill: Come on if you have that cut and you spray water in there and there is no water inside the engine bay you must have really bad aim LOL Personally what I am working on and I know some others have setup is removing the driver side bat. Piping the filter over to that grill opening and removing that backing plate completely. One guy had one not set that far forward but had that plastic piece removed and in a snow storm on the highway completely filled and covered his filter with snow. But you are correct in that water is not that easy to get up there. My only point is that on top of better filtration you have an added bonus of not having to worry about water spray with the Donaldson. Consider I am running a Big Boost and in fact was one of the very first on the forums that started running one as far as I know. But I also am not one of these people were I have to argue that what I am running is the best at everything. Its not. It flows more than any other filter by a large margin. But compared to the Donaldson it does not filter as well. The Donaldson is best at that. I right now do not run on dusty dirt roads etc. I also have run UOA to confirm I have no issues and have no dust in my intake tracks. But as soon as I plan to go off road/ hit loggin roads or plan on spending tons of time on gravel I will be switching back over to a Donaldson for those times. It takes all of 5 mins Right tools for the job. I am working on a new intake as I want to try creating a true RAM air "as in pressurized air box." Batteries are going to the frame. Interested to see its effects during hwy speed cruising( EGTs, MPG, AIT Pre/Post IC, Boost/Drive PSI) [/QUOTE]
