Modding the Snorkel rather than removing it...
Im thinking about Modding my Snorkel on my 97 986, I already have it removed and it sounds great!!!!
But I did notice my engine temps are alittle higher without the snorkel than with the snorkel.
I was thinking since the Tappering of the Snorkel seems to be acting as some sorta of noise muffler for the intake, I figured...Why not modify the snorkel by widening the tappered end of it to be just wider than the base of the snorkel that attaches to the airbox?
Then with that done, The engine coolant temps should remain normal and I should have the same great 5k RPM roar of the engine coming from the intake.
Am I right or is there something Im missing here?
Im willing to hack-up my snorkel for the sake of experimentation since I am currently driving without it.
I would appreciate any opinions or suggestions before I decide to under take this task.
