Rep Power: 0 unless it goes in a 2 foot puddle, and STAYS there whiel you rev. you should be fine. I don't believe the intake creates enough of a vaccum to suck up water all the way up. Correct me if i am wrong.

Rep Power: 0 revitcivic, you are right. the whole hype about sucking water up is just that: hype. you'll be fine, and don't worry about wasting $50 on the bypass valve, it's a waste of money and it looks bad, IMO.
yeah, in our cars w/ the aem cai, there is NO need for the bypass valve, you woudl have to SUBMERGE your car into one hell of a puddle....and in that case, sucking up water is the least of your problems! lol
