well with the bypass i think it's been documented that you lose a few ponies due to the lack of flow with the valve and what not. i dont use one on my CAI, i just drive really carefully in the rain. thankfully the fact that im not lowered is a bonus too. if worse comes to worse and i seriously need to drive through a huge puddle, ill just pull out my pocket knife flathead, and disconnect the intake from the intake mani for the 20 feet i may have to ford through a river
with my iceman, i can disconnect the lower portion which i've been meaning to do for awhile. i'll just attach the air filter to the top part so it looks like a generic intake with the filter in the engine bay. i also need to clean it cuz its filthy right now.
