snorkel finished!
i did make my own scoop at first but i thought it looked a bit naf so i went all out and bought one of them k&n look alike. i didnt want to do that at firs because i thought a scoop would look better but i forgot all about that amazing noise the k&n makes! it sounds epic!
this is the way i plumbed it in, i cant think of any reason not to do this other than the PCV valve pipe thing now doesnt go into the air stream. this should be ok though shouldn't it?
also im pretty sure, but not too sure. this wont affect the fuel consumption like it would on a modern car would it?

Nah, your SJ won't even notice the difference I shouldn't think.

Don't think my snorkel makes a difference but tbh I don't take any notice of mpg
Coming along nicely though, nice one fella
