Nice work on the CAI...it looks good.
Hydrolock only happens if you submerge the whole filter in water. Most people don't drive through over a foot of water...if you do, then a bypass valve is a good investment, otherwise, you could save the $45 for something that's more useful. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

last year we had a "freak" rain storm, where we had over a foot of water on almost every street in town because the drains couldn't handle it, and i know someone who hydrolocked their engine trying to get home....
we were driving in a pos escort (tons of ground clearance) and we stalled, i opened my door and water was coming into it.... it was nuts. so i say yes, get a bypass valve you might save your engine!!! and it's only $45... -------------------- |
