    Just disconnect the snorkel at the fender where the stock intake was? I can't go back to stock... too much chopping has been done and don't have the stock parts anymore.

    Yes, stock fuel pump.

    dont go stock. eliminating a snorkel just takes effort. s/c intakes like lots of free air. upgrade that fuel pump. its a weak spot.

    Just for test purposes to see where you are.

    I'd that doesn't bank out, then the chances are relatively good that your fuel pump is another one to add to the "documented garbage" list which has not been so well documented on this forum. Hahaha.

    I'm moreso interested in the intake itself. Would be nice to ditch my stock box.

    I sold my afe pro dry s when I purchased the URD tcai. I had mentioned before that I have an enormously terrible vibration at 2500 rpms. I think it may be coming from the intake. That being said, I’m switching things up and bought a AFE cai to see how that one works out.

    Yeah. Redundant…. Dorkel went on first then noticed it wasn’t getting enough air. I have option to close off grill scoop when trail blazing.

    You think you got enough cooling hoses there brother? :laugh:

    Get yourself one of those mobile shades.

    I will be doing a test between several air cleaners for better flow here soon. no snorkel, regular top, engineair, and 2 different cyclone setups (normal and the bigger one). Also planning a Dyno sometime soon and get a gauge of at least 3 different setups.

    Trying to get the exhaust done first before then. Plan to write up a quick note on it to see how much of a difference is etc for folks that need/prefer to run them based on the trucks use.

    For those that did the roush tensioner - did it make you supercharger “marbles” louder?

    mine seem noticeably louder below 1k rpm idling
