Is there any reliable prediction software available for predicting intronic variations?

I want to predict the effect (if any) of intronic variations on the respective protein.

If the variants are truly intronic (i.e. not at splice junctions) there isn't going to be a direct effect on the protein.

There may be an indirect, regulatory effect, but that's unlikely to be reliably predictable. Like Pia says you're likely to need to do an experiment.
