Default Modded FIPK

Anyone ever try using a snorkel with their FIPK intake ? Will it fit ? I dont see how it would hurt in performance ... Any thoughts on this idea of mine ?

its a great idea. although a stock box with snorkel might be more effective at reducing intake temps since it would be sucking in cool air completely and then somewhat ram air effect at speed.

After looking at that link, I stand corrected. I can see how it would be effective. Funny though, one guy in the thread said he sold it to get a cold air intake .
