CAI only if you need a bypass valve if you live/drive in an area that floods alot.. IE .. in PA we have a few areas that when it rains alot will be 1 foot deep puddles.. I avoid personally but if you dont you will hurt your car with the V2

id go with the V2 if you can afford it. they get kinda expensive...even used. the CAI runs 150-200 on ebay.
