Huh?
Oh, you bent valves, probably rods too. Rebuild time.

Your motor is fucked up, most likely bent valves. Last time I had my aem cai and I had to go through a puddle I turned my car off before I went throuhg the puddle.

Re: ummm helpppp type r is almost dead (UnDerDog-R)
You hydrolocked your motor.
What do you need to know? There is a good possibility that you have serious damage that requires a rebuild.
You will have to tear apart the motor to be sure - or you can drive it until it blows up and then get a new motor.
p.s. don't drive through water unless you are in a SUV or pickup

sorry to hear about what happend.. don't run cai again, or if you must, don't run them during rain. these compression results are very low, probably best to tear it down before something snaps.

seriously.. most people around here talk out of their *** and have no idea what they are talking about.. best bet is to take it to someone whom you trust and get a correct diagnosis of the problem. I wish you luck and I hope it doesn't cost you an arm or a leg.

Everyone who said bent valves is correct...probably bent rods....probably some piston to valve contact...
Those who said "you hydrolocked" are talking out of their ***. If he hydrolocked that means the motor is totally seized....totally...there wouldn't be anything....nothing....nada....zippo....game over....SEIZED....
It's not odd that one cylinder would be worse than the others, that's normal...just more damage on that cylinder...
The engine is basically screwed if you're testing that correctly....count on a total rebuild. Sorry man.
And for those of you saying "Don't run a CAI where it rains" you are talking out of your *** also...you can run CAI where it rains, you just can't totally submerge the filter...drive it all you want when it rains...rain isn't what does it....people driving through puddles large enough to consider them small lakes and streams are what causes water suckage...

well, if hes intelligent enough to use a cold air intake he should be intelligent enough to not submerge himself into 3 feet of water....
once you start to mod a itr, all bets of reliability are off

The numbers are low, but remember it's consistency that is important too. Tear it open
