how exactly did you manage to suck in so much water for the car to do that? was the CAI filter ran close to the ground with no ran bag over it or bypass or something else?

It's called hydrolock and your rods are probably broke into peices. Water can't compress, so something else goes boom!!!!

take of your spark plugs and then crank the car if it is really hydrolocked the water should shoot out. fyi if asoon as you relized you hydrolocked you should have tried this some pll have gotten lucky and avoided replacing a motor that way
