Default Ram Air , Snorkel, Performance Efficiency?

I dig the new design of this snorkel. I have heard a lot about performance using snorkels, that it draws cleaner, colder air making performance better, and increasing fuel economy, I have also heard that it can restrict air flow with the bends and small air passages. I am curious what would be the results of this snorkel and if it would be and if compatible with aftermarket high flow airfilters. Example: Volant has a snorkel, and CAI cold air intake filter that works together, but a bit to large and awkward looking for my taste. Could you speak to this?https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/imag...lies/smile.gif

Why does this keep coming up. Read the thread people! Does nobody understand that a snorkel and a high flow intake oppose each other. There is no point on putting a high flow intake in line with a snorkel. It's not worth it. Other companys make it because people will buy it, not because it's a performance boost.

But....the intake has the 4 bolts on top, maybe you could fab up some kind of mount that goes into those 4 bolts that will allow us to mount a windshield light on top? Throw in a few rubber isolators/washers to prevent rubbing onto the snorkel and movement of light.

I think that would make people happy and more willing to buy the snorkel since many JKer's have windshield mounted lights.

If I'm wrong at least I would like this!! haha

Drew up a quick picture . Sorry I'm not the best artist but hopefully the idea gets across. Made sure to use RR lights


This is the great Idea.
