Im sure it depends on the Snorkel. A snorkel goin to the roof and using the stock airbox is pretty restrictive but a short cowl snorkel isnt much longer than a CAI and it sucking in cold outside air. I took this image from a thread for the Spectre cowl snorkel.

 

How do u keep rain/ moisture out of that.. do u put a hood scoop on the outside.

 

2x on that

 

There is way more pick up now and better mpg

 

Lol

 

The passenger side cowl is blocked (under the wiper blades)and the rain will drain out before getting to the filter.
You will hear your intake in your vents but most don't mind the noise.

 

Hell the noise is AWESOME!!!
4.0 passenger-side cowl snorkel, straight piped with a CAT, 5-speed manual

 

I made my own cowl intake, it's on the driver side, took it off after heavy rain and driving, only a few drops inside.
I'm going to plumb it over to the passenger side when i get the motivation.
It's been on there with no problems for to long for me to worry.
Most expensive part was the cone filter.

 

If the radio is off and I have the defroster on it sounds like Darth Vader is in my passenger seat

 

This

 

Lmao

 

Try making the hole in the cowl the same size and shape as the tube or whatever is connected to is, then smooth it out. I just used a couple dif grits of sand paper I had. Also sealed it together with a layer of rtv. It took a lot of the annoying "darth vader is my passenger" noise away.

 

Is it only loud when you are taking in fresh air from outside? If you have the air on recirculate, does it help with the noise?

 

Stripped it.

 

Hi Ian,
Can you post a few pics of that CB antenna mount. I need to do that and would like some hints on what mount to get.
Thanks,
Dylan
