slightly, but not usually enough to cause damage... if it rains while you are driving with a Ram Air intake system, i would just check it more often for dirt and grime. Usually it's a light case of 'steam cleaning'

i personally think that water in the intake is kind of an over rated problem.. ive seen CAI soaked in mud and water (filter located in the wheel well) and the motor only struggle when there was so much crap on it air wasnt getting through.

+1 just dont enter any lakes and you should be fine
probably have to clean it more often than everyone else since it's so exposed...
