Negatory. "Cold air" filters are an extremely bad idea because of that hydrolock risk.
CFM is the best rating. But do a search on air filters here (especially K&N) and you will see that they give 0% difference in performance or economy on "old" mechanical diesels. In fact, they can hurt the engine because they don't filter ANYWHERE near as well as a paper filter. The only gain you will get is "noise".
