Injen TechnologyX-1033RED Red Hydro-Shield Pre-Filter

The shield fit my intake cone perfectly (please check the product details) and add's a nice red color to complement my valve cover. The product does exactly what it was designed to and that's to keep water from being sucked into the filter. I have run my engine and poured water over the filter with this installed and the water simply beads up and flows off or eventually evaporates. Great for CAI systems where rain can hit the filter and offers complete peace of mind.

Car feels a lot peppier with this cold air intake. Intake is 50 state legal, no problem passing inspection. Looks like a million bucks installed!

This is replacing a Filter Wears brand pre-filter that lost its elasticity and doesn't fit near as well. I need to run one of these because I have extensive hood louvers ad want to keep moisture off of my air filter.

It fits the Injen cold air intake filter for the rsx/dc5

It’s great filter shield if it isn’t pouring rain in your state.

Protect your engine from hydro lock, and dress up your Injen filter at the same time. Fits perfect.

Had this on and drove through lots of rain across the country. Not going to lie I've always driven cautious, but just last month I had to drive back from Austin where I'd returned to the night before Hurricane Harvey hit Houston. I waited a week to drive back and roads were still under. While taking back roads around Beaumont trying to get back for my final week of work in Baton Rouge I had to cross roads in marshland slightly under water, but vehicles in oncoming traffic ere casting title waves. I had no choice as I couldn't turn around but to follow a lifted dodge in his trail marks in my Acura TL (lowered an inch). I felt like a wakeboarder and was positive I would hydrolock. I only found out there was no other roads on the other side of the submerged road. So I then had to return to the other side using the same path, but only found out the other side was slightly deeper. Adrenaline ran insane and I am very lucky and thank the Lord for these things. They work! Be smart though I'd never have done what I did if it weren't the last option.

it works to repel water and not let bugs get stuck in ur filter, ull be cleaning/replcaing ur filter a lot less with it on but if a lot of water goes on it, its gonna go through it. i like that its really easy to clean just rub it with a little water and thats it. i dont think this piece of cloth costs 1 dollar for them to make, why is so expensive?

La verdad es que funciona a medias aun sea un poco de brisa con agua la que le cae, si pasa algo de agua, para lo que si ayuda bastante es para el polvo!!!

I have a eBay filter that came with my cold air intake (had to modify the piping because of fitment issues and had to turn it into a short ram...classic eBay no name parts) thats  6" Base/ 4 3/4" top/ 5" tall. I was a bit worried because my filter top was a bit smaller than the 5" the pre filters top measured at and that it would be slightly baggy on the filter but it fits amazing, way better than I expected. Appears to be great quality material and put together well, it should be considering the price which in my opinion is a bit steep but it is very competitively priced with other pre filters that I've researched . It does look different than the one in the description like another customer said but I prefer this one. I haven't tested it but I will when I have some time and update my review. Its nice to have on for peace of mind especially if your filter leaves your engine bay like CAI's do. I plan on creating an air tight heat shield box for my intake and running pipeing for cold air right to the filter so it will be nice that I wont have to worry to much about getting water in my engine. Also like another customer said it didn't come with stickers which would have been nice...its surprising since most high end parts companies usually supply stickers with their products. I am happy with my purchase and recommend this product.Update: It is water resistant. I lifted up my hood after a good rain and water had pooled in my grille and when I lifted the hood up the water went directly on to the filter. The water slid off and beaded but I could see a bit of water underneath the cover on the filter. It does its job and is repellant.

Fits perfectly and keeps water off but....it is expensive for a piece of tight mesh.As well bare in mind I didn't get the filter in the picture, I got a red pre filter with a rubber injen badge with no marking of "Hydro Shield". I don't know which is better but it works and its injen.

Fits perfectly to our application. The prefilter is NOT water proof, but it does repel slight bits of water.

The fitment was perfect. You can see the water beading off. Looks good too
