Personally, I'd say get a normal open intake then get an intake wall from Supermac http://www.ultimateperformanceacc.com/ . He's actually done tests showing that the wall lowers temps around the intake. So near the same effect of a CAI without the hassle of piping and relocating the intake and no worries of water.
So will that in fact put out about the same # of HP or what??? Cuz on ebay they say like ne wher from 8-15 HP gains... and should I not buy a CAI if I live in chicago, cuz of lots of snow/rain (Which I intend to drive my 3s in the winter)...
