    Hahaha but for real though, do I have to put on that big clunky thing that NYCO has every time I go over the pass? I suppose it wouldn't be too much of a pain...

    Been through a snow storm already, 4 torrential downpours too. Just the snorkel in its current exterior config. No issues that I am aware of. Checked the filter the next fair weather day after each. No more moist than any other day.

    I want one too. For those extra dusty days, I feel it would be a life saver.

    While I'm at it - ANYONE KNOW OF A GOOD SOURCE FOR ALUMINUM PIPING? Polished or not, tuner status or not. I need a few pieces, one straight pipe, couple 90º, 130º and others. Guess I need to really measure properly. But a starting point would be appreciated.

    I'll look - Optimally, would love to find some Black anodized / died aluminum pipe to make it less obvious in the bay.

    Just checked on pre-filters yesterday. We're out. Not sure what happened but we seem to have blown through the tacoma stock.

    What do they look like exactly? Are they the big round things that replace the ram air?

    word of advice on the prefilter. make sure it's secured well. not sure if someone had sticky fingers or it took an unauthorized detour...

    got creative with some gorilla tape after realizing it was gone...I'll put the airflow hat on when I get home but gotta enjoy some San Juan powder first...

    I had a screw going through the rubber coupling below the precleaner but the cleaner was only held in by a hose clamp. next time screw through coupling and cleaner in addition to the coupling to snorkel.
