Default Cold Air Intake.....at the beach

I'm going to the beach next week.

Will I be asking for a problem if i take put my CAI on?

My filter is located right around the top of the srt fog light. which is about 4+ inches off the ground?

I'd get better gas mileage but I wanna know if that sand will do anything to me

coool. i was hoping to not suck up any sand but I assume the filter will take care of all of that. I will be driving my car right up to the beach, or as far as they'll let you go so yeah.

I was planning on using the srt spoiler as a surfboard.

Honestly, with as long as the stock antenna's are, you can practically go fishing with them. hahaha

anyways thanks for the replies guys. i shall put it on for the .5+ gas mileage.

Should be OK as long as tons of really wet sand doesn't get on the filter. You might want to get a bypass valve anyway.
