The bypass works by vacuum. If the filter becomes submerged in water a vacuum builds inside the induction tube. The valve has flaps that are set to open at the amount of vacuum required to draw water an inch through the induction tube. This causes air to rush in and equalize the vacuum and normalize pressure. This prevents any water from every being ingested up through the induction into the intake manifold. The valve is passive and does not do anything until the vacuum pressure is at a critical level. It does reduce performance, however, it is not to any degree that I have been able to quantify. Hope that helps

Happy CL-S Pilot
Hey Xephyr,
Where are the "holding brackets" that were burning in the test oven? I do not see any in the installation FAQ!!!! Did you ship you CAI without any of those brackets?

Bare Bone Stock Type-S. Plenty of accessories. PIAA 19169 to be installed soon.

Well, one suggestion I have is maybe doing a manual cleaning in the intake tube itself. I just got mine today and inside the tube it's quite dirty and has some metal filings in it as well. Running your finger inside pulls out some dirt and metal pieces that I'd prefer not to end up in my engine.
