I got one off ebay and it fit perfect, no way am i gonna spend another ~$100 for MAYBE .3 HP for a brand CAI. I don't know if its illegal or not, its under the hood so i dont think its real obvious lol.

You won't flood your engine if you simply drive in rain--- I have a fenderwell kit and I've never had any problems. If you drive through a substansial puddle, you're gonna be in some trouble.

I got my CAI off Ebay, it's a Bomz Racing CAI and is much cheaper than the name brands. I wouldn't get any other brand off Ebay though, the other cheap ones seem to have a lot of fitting issues. I know several people on here have gone with Bomz and are very happy with their purchases.
i have the same intake, it went right in, took like 20 min. ive had it for close to a year and everythings been fine. we dont have the checks here either so it doesnt matter to me
