^ Yup. In order to properly get cold air into the intake with a cone filter, you're going to run the risk of hydrolock. I had one on my GTI when I got it. Immediately swapped to the stock filter. I'm even tuned and still running the stock airbox.
You won't get any power from a CAI, especially on a 2.0. You'll get noise for sure. But that's about it. If you like the look, just swap a cone filter for the stock airbox. If you want performance, I'd just leave the stock airbox alone.
