Author: Radomskyi Maksym VasyliovychDo you want to conquer any water obstacles, dusty roads or snowdrifts? Snorkel is your faithful assistant! This article will help you choose and install the right snorkel for your car to protect your engine from dirt, dust and water and improve its performance.
What to pay attention to when choosing a snorkel
- Type of snorkel: There are two main types of snorkels: cyclone and jet. Cyclonic snorkels use a vortex flow of air to separate dust and dirt, while direct-flow snorkels simply raise the air intake point above the level of the engine. Cyclone snorkels are more effective, but also more expensive.
- Material: Snorkels are made from a variety of materials such as plastic, aluminum, steel and stainless steel. Plastic snorkels are the cheapest, but also the least durable. Metal ones are strong, may not rust (stainless steel), but at the same time weigh more and cost more.
- Size: Must be compatible with your vehicle model and be the correct size for its engine. A snorkel that is too small can restrict airflow, and one that is too big can be difficult to fit.
- Accessories: Some snorkels are sold with optional accessories such as pre-filters, cyclones and flexible tubes. These accessories can improve the performance of the snorkel and make it easier to install.
- Price: the prices of snorkels for cars can vary from several hundred hryvnias to several thousand.
