It was installed on the turbo because they believed that people would have more tollerance for noise on a performance car. Apparently on the dyno testing at ford the snorkle made 2kw difference at the flywheel for the n/a engines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly couldn't notice any extra induction noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However Im happy with it but I still want more induction noise, Im gonna try a BMC filter or a K&N and see if it makes any difference. Thanks for the info Benny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
