Any issue at all with hydrolock?

I'm sorry, but I don't understand the continuing concern about this. The Stillen filters mount a good 24 inches off the road and are protected on the bottom by the large aluminum impact bar and a big hunk of stryrofoam. This is not at all like some of the 350 intakes where the filter hung down low in the grill and was susceptible to water ingestion. Unless you make it a habit of driving through 24" puddles I think this should be of no concern.. Even if you were to stuff the car into a 1 foot puddle and water caught on the lip, most would be directed at and through the radiator. The front side of the Stillens are so protected from even this splashing that you'll still pull air (no hydrolock)
