Installation & Components

Q: How long does installation typically take?
A: Install time is usually 3 to 5 hours for both the snorkel and airbox.

Q: Are all required parts included?
A: Yes, clamps, brackets, joiners, and a cutting template are all supplied for a complete DIY install.


Performance & Functionality

Q: How effective is the snorkel in deep water crossings?
A: Very effective. The snorkel raises the intake above the roofline, helping to prevent water ingress. Proper sealing during installation is essential for best results.

Q: Does the snorkel improve performance?
A: Yes. Customers often report improved throttle response and engine efficiency due to increased airflow.

Q: Do I need to tune the vehicle after install?
A: It’s not strictly necessary. The factory ECU typically adapts to the enhanced airflow. However, performance tuning may offer additional gains.

A: No, we do not currently fabricate snorkels or airboxes for petrol variants.

Q: Is this snorkel compatible with the Armax Safari snorkel?
