Project Gamma/MSR intake and Rain

Viper966 · 03-26-2019, 09:11 AM

Any issues with rain with these intakes? seems like the filter would really be exposed to the elements while driving in hard rain

No issues, I have Project Gamma and I drive in rain, snow, etc. Just clean them every few months and you will be good!

I just take them out and use compressed air to get whatever dirt is trapped in there. Then I take a wet towel and wipe it down and use compressed air to dry again. Leave them off overnight to completely dry and reinstall in the morning. Looks like new everytime

i drove from NJ to Indy last weekend through a snow storm and heavy rain didn't have one problem with Project Gamma intakes with K&N filters.
