AEM bypass valve

Does the AEM Bypass valve affect the performance of the AEM CAI? If so, by how much?

I heard it's a 2-3hp loss. But you have to make a choice....It's a rainy day...would you rather have water get into your engine and blow it up or just play it safe and lose a few hp? If your not concerned about hp and live somewhere where is rains alot then get the Bypass Valve.;)

dominate - Seeing as how you live in Florida (although i don't really know if you guys up in Tallahassee get as much rain as me here in Tampa) I'd recommend getting the AEM w/ bypass, b/c an engine with slightly less power is a lot better than one that doesn't run at all due to gulping up a big puddle of water...just my opinion

Better safe than sorry!:)
