rpm issue

when i come to a stop or even if i rev it up at idle, the rpms come down to 1k then go to 500rpm then back to 1k, it bounces a few times. i took my car to my uncles garage, he looked at it and said that the intake filter was shot and soaked with water. i have a injen sp series intake. i just bought the car and thats how it came. how can i protect the filter from getting wet? or is there anyone that is selling a factory intake? the filter is getting wet from the snow. any suggestions?

With a hack saw, screw driver, and some electrical tape.

get a hydro shield. Ill never understand a short ram intake. Sucking up warmer air from the engine bay? I dunno. 20$ shield, problem solved. Also, clean the TB
