The filter sits pretty high so water intake is unlikely but not impossible I suppose. I never had any problems and did drive through some moderate rain. The more often you clean the filter, the better, as long as you are not over-oiling. Whether you are using a drop in filter or an open cone, I doubt the difference in dirt intake is significant because of the similar compositions of the filters. The open intake will give you a very noticable increase in throttle response and lag reduction. Air gets to the turbo in a hurry but be ready for increased BPV noise. It's not like the whoosh of a BOV. It's more of a metallic nails on the chalkboard sound. I left the airbox in my 2003 and am running a JR drop in filter. The performance gains are probably very small.
