CAI danger?

[Deddjay]

I'm a newb. I know this and I'm over it. Anyhow on to my newbie question. Some friends of mine were warning me that if I have a CAI installed on my car there's a risk of it sucking up water during heavy rain weather. We all know how much that would suck. Is this true ? and if so what can I do to avoid this from happening (well besides not driving on rainy days. It's my Daily driver after all )?

ive got the place racing CAI on my car, and have driven through about 3 feet of water without sucking any up. dont get the bypass valve, otherwise you are just wasting your money on that cai.
