how often do tl's get hydrolocked just driving in normal conditions, ie. occasional rains, not swimming...

The bypass valve will allow the intake to still suck in air if the filter is submerged underwater. I personally don't like the way the look so I decided not to put one on my Injen CAI, but it's kinda common sense...just don't drive through water that deep. And as a last resort, you can always disconnect the piping from the throttle body. I'd rather suck in dirty air than water.

I don't know if it really helps or not but I got that hyrdoshiled thingy for my Injen intake. its supposed to repel water as long as you don't drive through deep puddles it should be fine. Plus the hydroshield is a little more filter which everyone could use.
