P700 External snorkel

[slikoriko]

Drilled a 2 inch bulkhead fitting in stock air box for additional two inch snorkel. One snorkel alone was restricting the flow . Using shop vac 2 inch vacuum hoses for bends. Still need to clean up clamps. With tire pressure at 25 psi. GPS reads 42 mph.

I have a question for you. How did you determine air flow was restricted? 2 inch vac hose should flow as much as or close to 2 inch pvc. I have done the same but ran the hose all the way to the underside of the roof. My findings are it has more air flow than the stock set up. Mine was running. leaner is how this was determined

X2. Look at the pics of mine and I have zero issues.

Leaner would indicate too much air, not enough fuel. That would mean your snorkel was flowing more than enough air.

Won’t that just be like a giant 2 hose vacuum sucking all the dust that gets kicked up?

I agree it would be in the thick of it.

Thats exactly what I was saying

mine being up higher under the roof is in somewhat cleaner air. In dusty conditions make sure your air filter stays clean

I hope I don't think like this guy, sometimes I wonder about my self and the stupid questions I ask.

Not seen evidence of that behavior yet.

I misunderstood, I thought you meant it was leaner before the snorkel install.

Apologies

All good. I just didn't understand how the OP came to the conclusion it was more restrictive

Placing my hand over the inlet ,has some suction. With another two inch. Now has less suction and acceleration is much noticeable. Without vacuum gauges i will never know. The actual difference

Ever seen and older air filter housing from a 70's or 80's car? Flip the top of the housing over. And you get more air flow. This has nothing to do with lean . Just air flow.

Huh?
Also, why are u running 25 psi in your tires? This aint an automobile.
Do u ware a mouthguard when you ride? 🤣

Please take over at this point!

I can see that. But at armpit level it seems it would ingest a lot of dust.
