Default Extremely poor drivability after car wash?

Washed my car and all that jazz. After I was done, I started to pull out of the car washing place and the throttle lag was awful along with just getting the car to move from a stop. Anyone know if this would be because the CAI was soaking wet or what?

If you wet the CAI, that will do it. You are sucking water into the intake. Not good.

Yea, I never really thought about that. I left the engine on by accident too. Working 12 hour shifts suck *****... haha

You know anything about the E-Brake handle rubbing up against stuff and making really annoying noises when you disengage it?
