Afraid I don't know anything specific about that snorkel. I went with the Bravo one.

The price looks good, but I don't know what install is like or the materials. The only think I heard was about water getting into the intake. Most snorkels use some kind of venturi effect to keep most of the water out of the system. I don't think this can be done with the side inlet design.

 

But it probably isn't a major issue, just something to know about.

Don't forget to sort out breathers for the gearbox, etc, if you're going wading. A stock Jimny is only supposed to go through 200mm of water, or below the level of the hubs - and most cars could do that!

To 300 BHP.

Did you manage to sort out the problem of the vibration with your snorkel?

Cheers.

The answer is sort off. I need to make an update to the main thread. I've been trialing some new pipework and it is much improved, but still a few issues. I think Bravo are sending me out something else to try. So once it is received and installed I'll make a proper update.
