agreed on the bypass valve

However, the reason why I am so against them, is because you dont have to run over one big puddle to hydrolock your motor. The more you keep running over small puddles, the more water that gets into your motor. Your motor can only take a certain amount before it locks up. I forget the exact amount Anyway, just keep in mind, all those small puddles add up.
