Ive been thinking about buying a snorkel for a while now and I found a few on ebay that are reasonably priced.
The main reason why I want one is because it is a TRUE cold air intake due to the fact that it does not draw in air from the engine bay.

Who here has a snorkel on their XJ? Is there any difference in fuel efficency, horsepower, etc? I would really like to know more about these before I go and buy one.

 

I am also in the same boat. Where did you find yours reasonably priced? all the ones i found were like 100+ bucks.

And ive also wondered one, how do you filter you air? and two I know that less that 2 tbs of water can kill an engine..and what happens when your driving and its raining and water goes into the snorkel?

 

Here is my ebay special for $160 and some change to my door. Works great and I have noticed a difference in fuel tho very small and it does seem to run better

 

I'd definitely sand the "DINGCHINGDACHING!" off the side if I bought one. hahaha.

 

Yeah I will too one day when I get a chance

 

that is the first thing i saw and was like hell no im not gonna have that on it if i get one LOL

 

Some people act like girls when it comes to their jeeps. Bet u guys have to do your hair before leaving the house too?

 

i got the Airflow snorkel because it does NOT require you to have to remove your windshield washer bottle when installed and also allows you to run aftermarket fender flares like bushwhackers if you want to(which the ARB and chinese ones made to be exactly like the ARB won't allow you to do)

plus its way cheaper then a ARB and just a little more then a chinese one.

comes in at 295$

i ordered mine from jeepin outfitters

 

I got an ARB one and it is very nice. To keep water out it drains water out of the top peace where you clamp it on.

By reasonably priced, I mean $160 ish.

Can't go too cheap when building a Jeep lol.

 

hahahahahahahahha
I'd buy one without the DINGDACHANGIDABINGBONG on the side. There are some on ebay without it thank god.

 

I have trimmed fenders and TJ flares. So I'm hoping the snorkel will still fit, if not, I'll make it fit by cutting the front flare a little.

I have an 84-96 XJ so there's no need to relocate the washer fluid tank as it is on the firewall on the passenger side. My question is, what do I have to do to the door? You guys said you had to do a little modding?

 

I made mine for $60 love it.

 

I "third" that. What's up with the "wingdingwallabingaling" ****e? Is that the name of the dude that made it LOL.

And why yes....some of us DO STILL HAVE hair to comb before leaving the house

 

So how dose the Chinese one work if anyone has tried them um thinking about getting one myself
