There is only 1 thread citing a loss of power from removal of the snorkel, the others just quote the primary dyno for it. Here's the kicker... it was a loss of 1 peak HP, and that's perfectly normal for variance. I've had fluctuations of 2-3 hp on various dyno runs without making any changes to the vehicle.

Please stop the loss of power on snorkel removal myth.
