Intake snorkel
If removed do you think any water can get up to the filter?
I removed mine, it's my first step towards the BFI. If it's going to be a problem I'll block it up with the under headlight chamber. The reason I ask is because this car is my daily driver so I can't get the BFI done in one day.

instead of doing the BFI i made sort of like a ram air,I took of the snorkel and turned it upside down,with the mouth pointing downard,I then made a tunnel that picks up air from the vent on the bumper next to the turning lamps,So when your highway driving,the air is picked up from the vent and into the air box.sounds complicated but ill try and snap some pics of it

Did your temperature drop any when doing these modifications?
I only removed my snorkel and my temp. is reading 1 notch above the lowest.
I don' t know if that's normal or if my gauge is all screwy.
