After going back and forth on what intake to get finally went with my gut(thanks Moes!), here's the result.

And here is a pic of the truck just because :naughty:

Fit seems to be decent, sits a little off center due to the AC line on the passenger side. Also not sure if it is low enough for proper hood clearance, the hood shuts and the intake is pressed all the way into the hose. Still haven't decided if I am going to cut the radiator cover or just leave it off. Have a call out decal otw for the lid to spruce it up a bit. Will put some miles on it and check back in.

Is there really an issue with these and snow/rain? They look so badass and I want one. I live in Wisconsin so snow is definitely an issue lol.

I wanted one a couple yrs ago, but saw a thread with people complaining about snow and mud/water issues. It scared me away....didn't want to risk it. See pics below....

Holy ****. Nevermind that. Thanks for the heads up.

I know some guys still run them in the snow without issues, but like said, I just didn't want to risk it and waste the money.

Maybe. I live in Buffalo, NY and I've never seen snow in any stock air box. But to be fair, there's a BIG BIG difference between the Hemi stock air box and the Vararam air box.
