ok I just did the snorkel mod.

My girlfriend was convinced that it wouldnt add any sound to the car.

Afterwards she was proven wrong!!!!

She admits the car does sound admirably louder. And if you look at the snorkel from where the air enters it, that cup blocks 30-40% of the air coming straight in , the air would have to go up and over the cup, also the snorkel iteself ovbiously takes up space in the intake tube, so that would be less air in there, which would equate less horsepower.
