Could it be that we thought of this when developing the supercharger as well???

So my dealer told me to be super careful and not to hit any puddles to avoid risking hydrolocking...I can't say I haven't hit a puddle or two but no issues... Should I be as concerned as they made it sound I should?

sorry I'm great at goin OT.

A puddle large enough to hydrolock your G3's would be 3 ft deep. Dont worry about it.

If you hit a puddle large enough to submerge your G3's...I hope you're also wearing a snorkle!!!

Seriously though, no you'll be fine. Your dealer is just being extra careful, which is good. The G3's are mounted very high, you won't have to worry about that.
