dont you live in new mexico? lol

and i wouldnt worry about and water damage unless you had the intake in a puddle and started to rev it.. and there is no way you got enough water in there to do any damage when it freezes... basicly there probly is a little water in there but nothing to cause damage

you should be fine unless you drive you car threw a lake or any water thats at bumper level..but if your worried about it get the heat gaurd that also stops some water from hitting the intake but i believe not a 100% sure the heat gaurd youll have to buy a new filter but i think they have the half gaurds instead of the full 1
