yes. 2000S. I liked the resultant sound very much. No discernible performance impact.

Lol, no difference in power that you can actually tell...all for sound. He doesn't have all the performance bits that you have.

Haven't done this mod yet. Don't want to start a brawl when someone flicks a cigarette out the window. Pisses me off right now as it is. Someone tell me it will be okay.

Evo Hi-Flo with cone filter...the whoosh the induction system makes is intoxicating. Tried the desnorkle and it wasn't loud enough for my taste.

I did, and I like the extra sound. Reminds me of when I was a kid and I'd flip the top of the air cleaner on my old Chevy upside down to get a similar effect.

And when we attached a playing card with a clothespin to the wheel on our bikes...that's really what started it all...

Mine was taped to my then ride, an Apollo 5.
To OP. I desnorkled and I like it. Even if I don't, I don't think I can put the snorkel back in...

Car is desnorked. A great mod with no downsides except for more intake noise!
