Ive just read the document on changing your standard ef snorkel to the tickford one. Just curious whether this increases power or accelleration or any changes that would come about ???

generally ppl have found a snorkle increases power slightly at highway speeds, improves throttle response and just lets the engine breathe a lil more easily

Yeah you will find that the snorkle together with a hi-folw filter of some sort will increase the throttle response :P There are no huge gains, but yeah as its been said it will make things flow a little bit better. :wink:

Worth considering its only like a $30 or so investment. Cant go wrong really.

Yeah it made my XR6 feel a bit less sluggish, especially on Gas so i was pretty happy about that. It also made noise at one point but for some reason now it doesnt. :?
