Kaine HgAg soldier Member 253 Member For: 21y 5m 24d Gender: Male Posted 27/04/05 09:29 PM Share Posted 27/04/05 09:29 PM Hey cikas,I am going to install mine on the weekend, I'll let you know how it goes and how difficult it was. The only thing that I am a bit edgy on is gettting the bolt underneath back on after the snorkel is in place. Make sure they don't glue the snorkel on either, or you will have one hell of a time trying to get your airbox back out.Kaine p.s heres a piccie of the back if anyone is interested in what they look like.

Its the same size/shape but a lot cheaper. I had mine fitted through the dealer in 30 minutes - if your dealer won't come to the party take it to good exhaust shop they should be able to do the job and it won't cost you that much.

Others say they are the same. Which is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its gonna cost me $55 for the typhoon snorkel.. BUT Ford wont install it for me.. They said it would take to long to do and would just be a pain for them..So ive held off for the moment... The parts guy will hold it for me till sat morning then its free to anyone.. He also said that I was lucky to get it cause FPV told them next time there will be VIN req ( Weather he was just BSing)So ill have tonight to think about it.. to see weather ill embark on butchering my Airbox cikas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
