krztaco - you're de-snorkled or just exhaust? If de-snorkled - anything special you do when you wash the car the avoid probs? Drive the car in the rain at all? Probs?

I know it's not exactly the same, but if you can recall the heavy rain that hit about 2 yrs ago here in soCal - well a few days after that rain I was in the local VW dealership and they had 3 'teenage-owned' heavily modified GTI's on the service rack, all with $10-15K engine damage secondary to the cold air intake placed behind the bumper. Each car took on water into the engine - remember one of the dad's yelling and screaming cuz the dealership wasn't going to cover it under warranty - hope he atleast stopped giving his brat an allowance for a couple of weeks!

Anyway, I'm itching to de-snorkel my 987 (wife says no more money on the car for a while!), but don't want to if you really have to be overly careful about washing it or driving it in the rain.
