Wes said something in Treeroot's Ptarmigan thread that reminded me of one of the discussions currently taking place in my head, so I wanted to start a separate thread to hash this out. I am getting real close to doing the Landtank MAF sensor mod. I'd like a little more power, but hopefully better fuel economy, so "more air" seems like the right direction. But no, I'm not giving up manifold cooking or the York, so we'll be sticking with the naturally aspirated options. However you tell me if that matters here.
Pros of the snorkel:
-Cooler, cleaner air intake since it's up higher.
-Ability to consume more air.
Cons of the snorkel:
-Have to drill a big hole
-Idiot magnet
-More drag?
