This is what the AEM bypass valve will help.
Incidentally, it is kinda funny. We had some rain a couple of days ago that flooded to the bottom of our install bay doors. Bldg is on a hill to a degree. Put it this way, we could not move cars in our out for a while. It was about 3 to 4 ft deep. Anyhoo, some goofball in a toyota pick-up truck came flying thru the lot doing about 20mph. My installers saw him coming and tried to slow him down.....he didn't see em.....fllloooompphhh, car sputters, smoke rises from hood, car dead. Dude jumps out in water thigh deep and exclaims; "It just died!" DUH!
Car #2 a honda - a little slower, water enters, pops hood, car sputters, smoke rises, guess what...you guessed it...car dead. Two cars got towed that day.
Do a search for "AEM Bypass valve" it looks like a flying saucer shaped thing inline in the intake tube.
