Hi all.
Please forgive me if this has been mentioned, but I have searched dozens of threads and am still unclear on what to do.
Now, the million dollar question....
Do I really need a snorkel?
Now I guess the answer to this question is different for everyone depending on what you intend to do with the car.
My situation is simple. I do bugger all water crossings and if I do it's no more than a foot deep. I live in suburban Melbourne, tow a boat and do a lot of country driving(on bitumen). I do the odd trip up to the murray and drive through a few puddles and a bit of mud. That's about it.
A mate is trying to convince me that my engine will perform better due to it getting cleaner, cooler air but I have come across little evidence to suggest spending 1k and cutting a hole in the guard to warrant doing it.
Any advice from those in the know would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers.
