Re: Airbox snorkel!!
  Whilst we're on the subject, the other day I found there's a connector blocking the left part of the snorkel. I couldn't push it out of the way, will it affect performance much?

Re: Airbox snorkel!!
I raised the tank by using the black old fashioned door stops which i bought in Chaplins (Plympton) for about 60p and got longer bolts from GT's in Plymstock, also removed the snockel, no water problems and it sounds great.

Re: Airbox snorkel!!
Do the tank raisers effect performance? Particularly on 33bhp?

Re: Airbox snorkel!!
Finally got to try mine after being off ill yesterday, makes a nice difference to the sound, in my opinion at least. quite pleased with that for a free mod, sounds nicer on overtakes now
 does the pointy compensate automatically to the air change? from the sounds of it the curvy can struggle so I'm guessing thats the reason but I might just be making stuff up
