If u arent a complete moron, you wont hydrolock with a cai if ur carful when the roads are wet. Just use your head. Also a cai will benefit you car even more when you add a full custom exhaust (meaning header, midpipe, hi-flow cat, and catback pipe and muffler)
well, i'm sure no one intentionally drives into puddles, but visibility in rain isn't exactly "perfect." not to say that i've ever done it, but i'm not gonna be so bold as to say only morons get into accidents (any kind of accident) because that's just asking for it.
5whp from a CAI? hmm. that sounds more like a marketing department than dyno results...who knows maybe you're lucky.
