filter question

I just removed my stock air filter and housing and put in an afe filter and housing. My camp road gets pretty muddy and i was wondering if water or mud gets on the filter will it seep through and get into the turbo intake?

With any filter this can happen but only under extreme downpores or mudbogs. I wouldnt worry about it during normal driving

i will answer your question with a quesiton.... have you ever found mud up around where your air filter is? if so you need to think about protecting the filter b/c yes it can get through the element and get sucked through the motor! not good!
