No i dont, but i can take some for you when i get my jeep back from the stealership tonight.. other than aerodynamics of the snorkel, your MPG should stay close to the same. The snorkel still pulls air from outside the engine cabin so its like a CAI in way i suppose

You're definately going to achieve better MPG's using a CAI.. The snorkel is insurance in the wet stuff though!! Don't go through any water rocking a CAI or you may just hydrolock!! My JK doesn't double as a submarine or anything, but I wanted that "just in case" insurance!! It also adds the the pickup off the line and looks bad ass!!

BTW.. If you are going to install the snorkel, send me a PM w/ your e-mail address.. I'll send you the pics from my write-up, but LARGER.. I've sent em out to about 3-4 people on here and they all said it helped.

Actually I got better fuel economy with my snorkel and AFe drop-in over my Air-Raid CAI system. Snorkel draws in much cooler air and is a true CAI system over the ones dropped inside the engine bay.
