If im scared of my car hydrolocking because of my new cai , because it rains alot here. Im going to buy a k&n "drycharger" its supposed to keep water out without messing with air flow.

has anybody had any experience with that product???

 

um do you drive through puddles all the time?
i'm talking deep deep puddles that submerge the filter

 

it takes alot of water to hydrolock, you've got to suck up your 3' diameter. avoid puddles. common sense.

 

ya with my old CAI i was never scared of driving it thru typical puddls..... but once i droped the car pretty low THEN I GOT SCARED and just cut my CAI into a SRI.

if in doubt just cut it to be a SRI
you can always clamp the 2 piecesback toether to be a CAI again.

 

get rid of the CAI and buy a SRI, same performance, looks better imo and you don't risk any damage from water.

 

You really need to go in a deep puddle to hydroloc your car. My car is lowered and ive had my cai on there for over a year and no hydroloc at all. Just go slow on puddles (put your hazards on) and make sure your not going over a lake. cai has better higher rpm power than sri

 

plus over time i mean like a looooooooooong time if you keep on drivin thru puddles eventually you will see signs of hydrolocking.

 

HAHAHA ^is that so??

 

well i suppose. it happened to my friends integra and as far as i know he had it for about 6 years and over time he collected enough water and BAM hydrolocking lol

 

Um, yea or finally he went through a puddle deep enoughto hydrolock and just didn't want to tell you cause he would look like an idiot
Basically, Shroomy you have nothing to worry about witha CAI as long as you're not getting that filter submerged in water.
