Unless you drive through a lake I think everything in the winter is good and it can literally be a "cold air intake"

Actually, our Stangs run a hell of a lot stronger in cooler weather than the heat of the summer. So, why are you expressing concern?

Yea only concern is if your running a HAI (Hot Air Intake) during the winter time. But you should be good.












oh hai!
