Title: No snorkels for 2.5L 4 cyl?
Post by: astrogiblet on July 06, 2007, 10:52:24 AM
Looking through Quadratec, all the snorkels they sell are specifically labeled for the I-6's. They dont have any (that I can see) for the 4 cylinder engines. The airbox is setup the same for both vehicles, same area and everything, so why is it so exclusive? Can the 4cylinder not handle taking air in through the extended tube?

I would think it would work the same IMO. Only change is maybe is at the intake point.

Thats what I thought, but I'm wondering why they dont market them towards the 4 cylinder?

maybe because we are a rare breed.

Oh really? Most of the Jeeps I've seen seem to be 4cyl's... But that doesnt really mean anything.

Its the same as the 4L.  I emailed ARB and asked them a while back.

Engine size is not a issue the air boxes are the same and thats where the snorkle ties into.
