Rugged Ridge JL/JT Snorkel kit installed

If you do, you will choke your engine, simple physics.

Actually, I've seen that a lot in Africa. Plenty of air gets in there.

Definitely not as efficient, but I’ve seen people doing it.

Anyone know if the genesis dual battery works with this snorkel yet?

Bump. I'd like to know as well.

Yeah, if you're worried about rain getting in, I'd use a pre-filter to replace the intake.

Can someone please post a good picture of under the hood horizontal pipe that runs along the fender. I have a extra fuse box attached on top of the original fuse box and thinking to install another control box that attaches between battery and fender in the empty space there. Need to see how much space the pipe takes. Thanks.

How about these?
Sorry it’s dark, I’m watching football, drinking a margarita and ordering Jeep pats, so....

I will say it does press against the hood some but nothing concerning to me. I have a single wire for my sub fuse on my fuse box.

Perfect angles. Thanks a lot. Looks like there is still room for extra controller boxes, etc.

Testing it a bit today.Not that deep but better to have it and don’t need it than to not have it and need it

I’ve always wondered how the alternator will fare with sustained submersion. I’ve had my 3.0 briefly pushing a bow wave over the hood despite an extra 5.5” off the ground, with no issues, but sustained depths have only been in the 36” range which is well clear of the alternator.

Any MPG difference you've noticed over the time you've had it? Or any other observations?

Not really, you do hear the sound of the intake a bit more, but only a little bit, nothing major. I ended up installing it more as an insurance since we have a lot of water here in Florida lol

Ok thanks - yeah I was also wondering if wind noise could be an issue - say with windows rolled down and at certain speeds maybe there's more noise, or whistling etc...
