Out of the following three items what do you think I should get next?

CAI is probably the best way to go although I was talking to someone that I work with and they mentions to get a short ram instead.. Something about rain/wetness// I have no idea.. just copnfused me

I had my CAI on until November, and went through many a deep puddle without so much as a hint of water problems.Get a CAI if that's what you want. You shouldn't have any problems.

I had a CAI for about 2 months and went trough puddles splashed water all over and not one problem.

Can someone hook me up with a link to that cool air intake please?

Are we sapposed to take the CAI off in the winter? Snow and such gonna hurt it?

Nope. No need to remove it. I removed mine because I was unable to do filter maintenance properly. It needed 24-48 hours to dry after washing, and I needed the car to be available in far less than that. I decided to just nix the CAI for the winter and I'll deal with it in spring, when it's WARMER!

I've been looking at the K&N Typhoon short-ram myself... if only because it seems like it would be less of a hassle to deal with down the line. (See: Filter removal)There've been a lot of arguments over which is better, and my conclusion is this: Either way, you're gonna get more air than with your stock box.

Clean and store till next time you need to clean the one in the car.

Well thanks for all the info everyone I think I know what im gona get next.
