bypass valves do not work unless the whole intake filter is under water. its totally useless is most cases. and over time the foam will get hard and fall off. stick with a short pipe intake.

It really depends on your version of 'puddles'. I've had a CAI on my car for 11 years and I've never had a problem. I also do not drive through flooded roadways. I've been in very heavy downpours in many areas of the country and with good drainage the water never reaches the critical depth of 12-13" where it could be pulled up.
