    I’ve got Stillen CAI with dry filter and got the OTT tune as well and love my truck , but because the Stillen CAI gets air from the grill as well and in rainy conditions I don’t know how much water gets in the air box I want to run pre filter cover . Anyone knows which one of the two I have to get size wise for the Stillen dry filter ?IMG_8592.jpg That’s the Stillen filter if it helps ! IMG_8606.png

    Too many mods to come
    Measure your filter and then order from https://filterwears.com/. I have a stillen tube and have driven in heavy rain. No water on my filter but won’t hurt for the peace of mind. But keep in mind that those pre filters also get saturated.

    I have a Stillen and have driven in the heaviest of rains with it, box and filter were bone dry every time. Unless you are water fording I wouldn't waste my time with a prefilter and use their block of kit instead. With the filter sock, you'll end up chocking out the engine since it won't flow well. If you are dead set on using a prefilter put it over the front intake nozzle instead.

    No worries. If you drive through deep enough water you’ll kick up enough to get in the box. You would have to try pretty hard to saturate the filter. I threw codes with the sock on the filter. Block off or sock the nozzle will work out better. I cut a custom clear lid out of poly so I can see in the box without unscrewing the lid.

    Lexan has a higher temp threshold but prone to scratching, expensive too. Acrylic won’t scratch but is right at the heat threshold especially in desert heat, cheaper too.
