Default Afe takeda

Hello guys, I was wondering if its possible to get this afe intake:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/aFe-Takeda-S...VYCWXN&vxp=mtr

with the dry filter? I am scared to get the metal piping because I live in a very hot and humid climate and it could affect the performance of my car.

Any help would be really appreciated.

Extremely sorry for the confusion guys. I meant to say I wanted to get the dry filter with the plastic piping. I've read that it's bad if the car is driven in very hot climate. But, if that's not the case then ill get it.

It isn't necessarily bad.. I feel like the plastic pipe would take away from performance. I live in Florida and 95% of the time it's hot AF outside. You'll be fine with the metal pipe, if you have the option between black or steel, then go with the steel.
