I think I have settled on Password:JDM Dry Carbon Air Induction System with a Password:JDM Dry Carbon Cooling Plate.

One thing that concerns me though is the potential of hydro-lock.

I live in FL and drive in some bad storms sometimes. Should I be worried at all?

Is there anyway to incorporate an AEM Air Bypass Valve (or something like it)?

Also other than SOS, are there any other vendors on the board that can give me a good price on this setup? $1500 for an intake was a little more than I budgeted for, but I want the best, so I'll save up and do it if thats what it takes...

I haven't 100% decided fully on it, it just seems that this is the best one that will meet my requirements, can anyone else recommend me a good intake setup with a cooling plate for a clean nice look but that doesn't require modifying the hood or bumpers?

 

i personally don't have any problems of hydrolock, but seeing as how you live in FL and go through some nasty weather down there the chances do increase, but i think it's still a slim chance.
anything is possible though!

edit: the intake only totaled to ~1100$ (before the april 1st tax rise in cali from 8.25 to 9.25%)

 

no taxes if buying out of state. ;-)
