No mpg or hp gains, but it works great in deep water of the pine barrens.

if you are worried about debris than get a set of pantie hose and cut it at like a foot and put it over the scoop and secure with rubber band then remove when you get out of the sandy aria. worries fixed!

I have the Arb/Safari snorkel. No gains in mpgs or power. Just sounds better.

Needed bumpstops because my tire rubbed the snorkel tubing in the wheel well.

It sounds better yes. Its hard to say but, it might be just a little more peppy but I added a K&N air filter at the same time. Don't expect to get thrown back in your seat.

I added the ebay snorkel last Sunday, and I noticed more pep in the skinny pedal. I'll be adding a drop in filter here soon

No change in hood function. Just flip the tabs reach under and lift.
