Re: Snorkel gave me an idea...
It's ok I expect blanket statements like that. And heck, for the small amount I know you could be right. I'm sure years ago there were posts about snorkels being a bad idea too, so who knows. Besides, the snorkel surface area for the opening seems a little small, is way to long and has too many turns to be effective for this.
I do know in the models like I've seen (I'm not coming up with a new concept here, just new to the FJ), there are filters behind the scoop, in fact making it harder for debris to get into the air box.
As for no gains, I don't agree. I have a gut feeling you'd see power gains commensurate to how fast you're driving... Up to a certain point of course. Air blasting directly into the air box has to have more of an effect that randomly finding it's way in from the wheel well.
