I've retained the original airbox which is 3" in and 3" out so I used a rubber 4"-3" reducer which I bought off eBay and then connected to original plastic 3" ducting. I also used 3" flexy tubing from supercheap in between, only because my snorkel is midway up front guard as I used to have an airflow snorkel so needed to use existing hole.

i got a proper airbox made with a 4" inlet, and proper pipework under the bonnet.

expensive option, but horses for courses...

Hi guys

what is the little tube that connects to the duct just before it hits the engine bay wall. does it need to be fitted. Mine has broken off, after you guys have been fitting snorkels with different pipe, are you reconnecting it?
