Default OTTO racing cold air intake

Has anyone else bought the Otto Racing cold air intake from this website? The other night I got in my car to go home and it was raining, and my car wouldn't start... My friend who is a mechanic said that my intake was probably letting water into my engine... has anyone else had this problem with the ****ty air filter they give you?

Most all performance shops that deal directly with AEM product sell the by-pass

you really dont need that at all. if you dont drive 80mph through water spots you will be fine. There is a reason they dont sell those for any of the mustang intake kits.....answer we dont need them, save your money.

oh and i assume your car started again right?

if you had water in it, it would of hydrolocked and you would be spending some cash to get it fixed.
