Default For those who have the TRD CAI ?

Hi
I am thinking of getting this and wonder if you can help

1. has your gas mileage decreased. I can't afford to get any lower than stock.

2. what about rain, water ingestion..

3. what about winter snow blocking the intake.

and how did you do it yourself.

thanks

Save your $300 if you can't afford less gas mileage. Once you hear the sound it produces you are going to want to get on it all the time which = decreased MPG.
