Thanks to anyone who actually read my posts...If nothing else, maybe you can find a way to make this system more efficient. If you wanted to get real into this idea, put and electric valve with a switch in the system. Build an airbox that will accept two air inputs.
I know there is nothing efficient about this setup...I will even tell you that my setup restricts horsepower to a small extent when only the raised air intake is open. As a matter of fact, from an engineering standpoint, I wouldn't NEVER design this setup to be applied if I had another choice. I built this setup before I took fluid mechanics. I take this Jeep out maybe 3 or four times per year and really just don't have the money to care about efficiency.
If I wanted to be more efficient, I would have incorporated electric valves, larger diameter pipe, a fabricated airbox that accepts both air-flow paths, and paid three or four times what I spent. I would have also used more gradual changing elbows and stuff. I could have used sch40 pipe or ABS or something...Maybe clear acrylic tubing.
To the people who felt like you should be nasty, you remind me of stuck up sassy off-roaders. "Like totally....Oh my god...Look at his snorkel...Its like totally ghetto...oh my god...". You people make me sick! Who are you working for? lol
I have a theory about you people. I think you work for off-road companies and are steeling ideas from people and then bashing on the ideas because you plan to use them in some way. This way you are steering people away from the ideas so you can bank on them.
Think of the payoff involved with hiring people to spend all day on forums steeling ideas and bashing on the people in an attempt to keep them quiet.
If my theory isn't true, then why do you take a perfectly good concept (which Ive explained is not "the correct way") and feel like you have to try to be nasty about it? Are you some kind of stuck up, sassy, online nazi, gangsters or something? You make me sick!
Or is that your reasoning?? You try to make people sick.
Any way you look at it, you just need to kick back and try to enjoy life. I'm not competing with you. I don't know you, nor do I want to.
Whatever floats you boat though..! No sweat off my.....
