Default OK i'm paranoid...

It's not really that easy to fukk up your engine by sucking in water through your CAI is it? Because I've had my intake on for about a week, so this is my first rainy day driving it, and I'm paranoid that I'm gonna fukk my car up. I didn't by the bypass valve though cuz I heard that you really have to be in lots of water. :dunno: h:

:thumbup: Thanks for the quick response!! That's kinda what I figured, but I was still hella paranoid. I was going through the trouble of trying to avoid any and all puddles (which is a pain in the ass when it's pouring I might add).

You might suck up a little water, I have before because my fender liner is messed up. But a little bit won't hurt it
