I would stay away from Cold Air...you would need a bypass valve to be completely safe...wouldn't want to hydrolock your engine...

CAI's are dangeorus because of hydrolock, I have the V2 and it's great, nice sound and performance.

first of all u would be able to see a gigantic puddle no matter what, at night u would see the reflection of it from ur headlights, ive seen huge puddles at night and gone around them, ive also driven through some pretty big ones and my engine has not seized once, u really need to drive through like a swimming pool to have ur engine seize, and bypass valves dont always work either

besides, CAI with our D17s are a waste of the extra 100 bucks.

ok come over here and see the roads, its not that hard, or did u ever hear of going slow, but whatever theres no point in arguing this, i have had a cai on for about 2 years now, been through hurricanes, blizzards, and all sorts of weather and my engine has not seized up once, i did not have a bypass valve on. Your engine see's more water than u think, so if u want a cai buy it and if it doesnt come with a bypass valve go buy one for $15.00 of of ebay, bypass valves are not guarenteed to work either
