if you drive with common sense you won't hydro lock your car, but if you need money than thats a different story.

more than common sense factors into it. Like needing to drive while it's raining, then seeing a puddle that looks like it's really shallow, but turns out to be pretty deep. that happened once, and it really freaked me out.

but yeah, I need money, too.

I drive in Oregon with mine on all the time.....I have yet to experience hydrolock and I am sure we get a crapload more rain than SoCal ever has.

bypass valve seems to negate the effects of having a CAI in the first place. Or so I've heard. My friend has one on his civic. He even has a header and exhaust, but I still rape him in any race.

epoch: 92-?? civic DX I dunno how far up it goes. I think it's only 95, but I'm not positive.

Here in Utah we get quite a bit of moisture (some years) and I haven't had a need for a bypass valve. You would be alright.
