the water prolly damamanged the engine. CAI and places where it rains normally are no good on cars. You get nothing buy hydrolock......

I hope it isn't but it might be. How did the CAI submerge in the puddles?

your cai gets wet and starves the engine of air so it sounds funny and almost dies ... its pretty normal myn does it to but if you want to get rid of the problem then you have to buy a bypasss vavle which will still let the engine breath eventhough yer primary filter is wet
