desnorkled porsche + rain?!?

[rusty]

i desnorkled my 99 boxster and finally out on the road again. i use the boxster as my daily driver, and i drove it a few days ago when it was raining! so what should i look out for? should i put the snorkel back on? is desnorkeling my porsche a bad idea when i use it as a daily driver in a place with unpredictable weather such as california?lol. thanks in advance guys!

just wanted to add a quick note...i love the sound of my porsche without the snorkel. but if removing it is gunna cost me a new engine some day, id rather put it back on and save up for an exhaust!lol. whats ur opinion?

You have nothing to worry about.

If you actually look at the intake system design and look to see what water would have to actually do to get to the intake filter you wouldn't even worry.

thanks guys for putting to rest my concerns. just wanna be on the safe side...after all, we all love our cars.lol

You have nothing to worry about...there is also a water drain in the stock air intake right near the air filter section. Just don't put a pressure washer nozzle in the intake opening when washing your car.
