First I realize there are many many many posts about the aem but I don't think they answered my questions specifically. The possibility of hydrolock is my main concern.
First, realistically, how much of a risk is their of hydrolock if you are not driving through deep puddles? In south eastern va where I live, there are moderate amounts of rain and I do drive through small-medium sized puddles at different speeds and more so in the spring and summer. <I'm trying to be as specific as possible here>. Would driving for say 15 minutes in terential down pours effect performance or cause hydrolock...or driving in rain for 15 minutes each day for a few days cause it?...and/or hitting the occasional puddle?
Also, would a dryflow filter or a cfm cover alleviate some risks without decreasing performance? I kind of want to stay away from the bypass valve because I've heard of installation nightmares but it does eliminate the possibility of hydrolock. ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT.
