Default Need Help

Okay i live in tn and yea we got some tornadoes tonight.. well there was one on the way so i pulled into a parkin lot quickly and hit a deep puddle.. well i have the SLP cold air intake with the scoop that goes down low...well soon as i hit the puddle my car stalls and quits. I leave it and run for my life haha. well anyway. after the first set of storms pass i come back to try and start it.. it starts but man it sounds horrible knockin like hell. soo i quickly turn it off and get some guys to help me push it into a spot..

SO.. what do you think i did.. be honest how bad is it??

Check your oil see if you really got that much water in it. but I would change it anyways an give the intake a good throttle body cleaning. how bad is it depends if you clean the water out now or latter you should be ok though
