Water and dust particle filters are nothing new for turbo prop engines, there is a slight loss of power though, but very slight.

Some of the round filter housings try and perform this function within the air cleaner.
I find it amazing how bugs and stuff find their way into the air box with the standard air intake.

Seems Mr Dyson has made plenty of $'s from a cyclone, oh and I'm not recommending you bolt a dyson on the snorkel (but if you did please take a pic )TheSheepKed wrote:Whilst I agree that you need diff breathers for river crossings, I wouldn't take a stock standard car with diff breathers through a river without a snorkel as well.
Anyway back to the point of my thread, I will post some pictures up of it when it arrives.
I think it'll work a bit better for dust but hopefully no change to air intake. They aren't new things and the tech has been around for a while.
They look pretty neat too.

Well I've driven it for a couple hundred Kms so far and it drives the same, touch wood. Bit noisier when you're accelerating hard, but otherwise normal.
I figured if all those 70 series have them, then it can't be all that bad. I like the look of them too. Don't see too many utes, let alone Tritons, with them on.
