Gday Kris, thanks for chiming in. I appreciate your comments and I’m stoked you got some value out of it.

G,day More 4x4 Team, We love seeing your passion for 4x4 vehicles & accessories, and the comparison video between stainless steel and plastic snorkels excites us! 💪 Both materials and brands have their unique perks catering to diverse needs and preferences. Since noise was one focus in your review - our snorkel silencer add on could've been a game-changer! 🤔 Our stainless snorkel with a snorkel silencer keeps things quiet, enhancing the overall experience! 🚗💨 Plus, our Y62 5” stainless snorkel, packs a hidden one-way water drainage system to disperse water before entering the airbox! 💦 This was unfortunately overlooked in the review! Don't forget the dust prevention angle - crucial for all you off-road adventurers out there! 🌪️ There's more to a snorkel than just keeping water out! ⚙️ In the end, the choice is yours, tailored to your ride, style and needs! Whether you want loud or quiet, we’ve got you covered! 🚙✨ We're all about providing unbiased info to help you make the best choice! 📚 All our products are 100% hand crafted here in Australia! As for airflow data, you’ve asked and we will respond. Hold that thought 💭 P.s We have Jmax caps too, if you’re interested! 😂 All jokes aside, thank you more4x4 for the review, we look forward to continuing the discussion. Got questions? Reach out at 1300 562 932 or shoot us an email at info@jmaxengineering.com.au. Check out our range at www.jmaxengineering.com.au! 🛠️

Thanks for the well thought out response and for viewing as informative and not us attacking stainless steel snorkels. I’m super keen to understand more about the airflow and if they’re different to traditional snorkel systems. Yes I’d love a cap Aaron Mitchell

How much extra is a silencer though? Majority of people with any staino snorkel don't have silencers. Most men might enjoy the sound but I bet most of our wives don't lol. Mine in particular lol. Proven facts how much quieter it makes it? Videos for both makes on noise, water ingress, dust ingress and expulsion would be good. Un edited tho of course.

@MORE4x4_au 3 ай бұрын

From memory it’s a couple of hundred bucks extra for the hush capacitor. I’d like to see the evidence on the airflow and noise levels too

Any further info yet in regards to performance? I'm all over the 5 inch snorkel, not opposed to upgrading the air box BUT I'd like to at least know there is no detrimental effect to performance (gains would be a welcome addition) Cheers

Plus with the safari snorkel you can put one of those uni filters to help filter it little better

Yeh that’s true but they are restrictive on air flow and consequently engine performance

Do this with a trubo diesel. Its the turbo induction noise which is the killer.

I’ll do a video on mine when I get it back in 2 weeks. Plus ram effect ok so this is what I was told by an aviation engineer is that a ram effect will only happen at around 500km/h. An also when just cruising without the right foot going stupid which I do struggle with 🤣🤣 my Fabwitz snorkel is quite. Will be good to see some of my results soon too. Great video again mate 👍🏼🤘🏽

Hey buddy, thanks for commenting. I’d be interested to see the data on ram effect, it’s super interesting to me. See if you can test the noise in the same way we did and check out how noisy it is. Thanks for watching. Aaron Mitchell

Let me ask you a few questions How many race cars have forward facing intakes vs any other way? Have you ever stuck your hand out the window while driving and made a cup shape? Have you ever googled flow around an object?

I've got a heavy ZD30 GU Patrol, long wheelbase, toolboxes, heavy. it struggles keeping up even with loaded trucks on the road so I'm looking at a tune, not race car, but maybe 145-180kw. What I want to know is what size is the safari snorkel for a GU ZD30 Patrol? Will it be a weak link if I'm upgrading my intake & exhaust to 3" full flow and a bigger turbo?

@MORE4x4_au Ай бұрын

Is it auto or manual? What size tyres are you running? Is it regularly serviced? How many km?

What about dust? The snorkels main purposes are to prevent water and dust from getting into the air box. I’m assuming dust wasn’t talked about because the safari ram head sucks in 3x as much as the stainless snorkel?

@MORE4x4_au 3 ай бұрын

Not at all, we didn’t cover that but not for the reasons you’ve mentioned but because we just forgot. I’d love to see the data on that but I expect you’re right! Not sure about 3 times as much but for sure it’s going to be increased because there’s simply more air flow going into the air box. Is that what you mean?

@Mouldyturnip75 3 ай бұрын

A snorkels primary function is stopping water ingress. There is an air filter to capture dust and keep it out of the intake track. There is no filter to capture water and stop it progressing down the intake track. The other marketing claim of snorkels getting cooler air is stupid, unless the intake is set up to draw air directly from under the bonnet, which no manufacturer does since carb's got binned.

@MORE4x4_au 3 ай бұрын

@@Mouldyturnip75 Thanks for commenting. We've covered the whole cooler air detail in previous videos. Maybe we should get a temperature probe into an intake to check the marketing hype and see if there's any basis to the claim!

@MORE4x4_au 3 ай бұрын

Ancillary to my previous comment. If there's dust in the air, any snorkel is going to intake that dust.

@Mouldyturnip75 3 ай бұрын

@@MORE4x4_auno different to the OEM intake position - engine needs air to operate, but if your bonnet deep in water you'll be wishing you had a snorkel over your oem intake.
