Default Vortex Rammer?

I installed the Vortex rammer on my last 02 Cpe.

All kidding aside, I really did feel a difference, and this was at about 35mph and up, A Substantial difference

My question is,

I have been out of this stuff for several years and am now hearing about hydrolock with some of the after market intakes.

Is this an issue with the Vortex Rammer as well?

Any cases of Hydrolock with this unit?

I have a new 09 and am planing on eventually going this route again and with this manufacturer.

My 02 with Rammer never saw a puddle, so I don't have any first hand exp in the wet.

Thanks!

Had it on my C5 Never a problem even when I was caught in a downpour. Slow down and don't fly thru deep puddles.
