Are you suggesting that there is good reason NOT to remove it?

I'm saying that the effort is a waste of time. But it's your time, so waste it however you please...................

I'm very glad that my new to me 2000 S came desnorkeled.The response to throttle positions during the different RPM ranges is vocalized.
This is part 1 of 3 of the brilliant intake/power engineering of the engine.
(FIRST) movement- Variable induction sounds
(SECOND) movement-The mechanical processing of the induction with the valve train
(THIRD) movement-The rise of the exhaust note as it reports
All of this is placed at the driver's left ear on left hand drive cars.Tremendous!

 Unfortunately you are incorrect. According to JFP below, you have completely waisted your time.

He didn't waste his time, the previous owner did. :chicken:
And if your car came desnorkled, you wouldn't have any basis of comparison. Maybe lightspeed would have liked the sound better with the snorkel on?
:dance:

I sense some bitterness. Crazy. Maybe some people like the sound better with it removed, to each his own.

Kind of reminds me of when kids put baseball cards in the spokes of their bikes to make noise..............

I thought that somewhere somebody had posted Dyno results showing 5hp on the top end for de-snorked cars.
