I have a 2007 "100 series" Landcruiser Turbo Diesel and i am contemplating fitting a snorkel. Whereas I understand a snorkel is apparently used when going through water crossings and very dusty roads, but that is not the reason why i want one.
I have heard of unsubstantiated claims of better fuel consumption and more torque, when a snorkel is fitted for everyday use and I am specifically referring to installing a snorkel for towing my 3 ton van. Apparently turbo diesels are supposed to run better when the temp is very cold and cold air is being forced through the snorkel. Is there any one out there that can help with technical advice and whether there really is benefits in mileage and torque when towing.
