Seem to be the case! I doubt it makes its way to consumer vehicles (and I can't tell how / if a filter is implemented), but this Acuity intake off one of the track-only FL5s they've worked with goes right into the passenger wheel well:

Wouldn’t that create potential for hydrolock in wet conditions?

Potentially, yep. All the intakes that route to wheel wells in some capacity (FK8 Eventuri, FL5 Gruppem, etc.) will. That said, I don't think the risk is overly high, as long as you aren't driving through standing water. Many cold air intakes are worse.

I already talked with Acuity directly and their intake is planned for mass production but it’s a long way off. Possibly 2025

It looks way easier to get to the filter for cleaning for one thing. The Gruppem looks like you have to take the box apart more than halfway to get to it. The Gruppem also has its own intake duct that fits down in front of the radiator. You have to undo part of the top of the front bumper to get it in there. How did your installation go?
