Possibility of Hydrolocking?
as been spoken about before and I have done searches online and on this forum but I haven't found the exact answer that I've wanted, I have an AEM CAI and I am going to lower my tC with the Tein S-Tech springs which is a pretty substantial drop, but a damn good looking one in my opinion, so my question is, with the CAI installed with a hydroshield and me being so cautious with every puddle I go by and doing everything I can to avoid it and trying to avoid driving in the rain at all costs with my car already, should I be fine with the car lowered and with the intake installed with a hydroshield?

I've been lowered on Sportlines (very similar drop to S-Tech) for years and ran a Takeda CAI for a couple years as well. Drove the car however I wanted and even drove through some pretty serious water right in the middle of Hurricane Sandy a couple years ago. Never ran a hydroshield or bypass valve. Don't worry about it. If you look, our car has a pretty comprehensive wheel well liner. Seems like pretty much nothing gets in there.

Don't worry about a thing. You don't even need your hydroshield.
