Hey guys, FRS driver here. I see all of the snorkel mods, nice. Anyway, I tried something similar and noticed a huge drop in torque down low, off the line. I drive an AT out of neccessity not choice. Anyway if you just punch it from a stop or under 1500 rpms with the oversized snorkel it will bog and the car will barely move. Rpms slowly climb to 2000 and the car gets going like normal. Anyway, I liked the extra pull up top so instead of abandoning the idea I designed a system that maximizes torque down low and still allows the car to breathe freely up top. I am not vendor status yet but, I have already made a request. Soon I will post pics and videos of the system in operation. I am also looking for a stock MT and stock AT to get a free intake upgrade and dyno session here in the North Bay. So before you pull the trigger on a $300 snorkel you may want to wait and see what I have. There really isn't anything like it out there. I hope to offer this unit right around the $50 range but, without a minimum order for reduced build costs the price sits at $65 right now. I believe that my unit will out perform most if not all snorkels on the market throughout the entire rpm range. This is a quality built unit, factory looks. I hope to have some videos up by mid week. Thanks.
