Intake Bypass Valves.
Intake Bypass Valves.
Any input? Never heard of them until my cousin pointed them out to me. Is anyone currently using them? Pros? Cons? Pictures?

AEM's Air Bypass Valve virtually eliminates the chance of hydro-lock in the event the filter of any Cold Air induction system becomes submerged in water. On most systems, the valve installs along the upper portion of the inlet pipe and shuts down induction at the filter when it becomes submerged, rerouting air through its external diaphragm to keep water out and air flowing in.
Features
-Virtually eliminates chance of intake system ingesting water if filter becomes submerged
-Installs along upper portion of any intake systems with minor modifications
-Complete hardware and installation instructions included

"submerged" aka ... driving through a lake.
i just avoid deep puddles when it rains, but i've read that you basically have to completely submerge your filter in water for it to take in water. unless maybe you like hitting 24psi while running through deep puddles...

Dunno why u would need a cabin mounted one, but the turbo cummins diesel engine in our dodge ram comes with a filter gauge on the air box stock.

my cobalt came with a injen CAI, i will just keep it, as is, i avoid puddles anyways, before this my 98 passat had a similar intake on it also and i never had an issue with it.
