once saw a Gq in a mag with a factory Gu snorkel on it, has anyone here done this, the factory GU snorkels look better and are cheaper than others available, i was just wondering how hard it is to modify it to suit

I have heard of it being done.
I think they use a heat gun a little to make it fit better.

so what is the end result? does it fit ok? is the pipe bigger diameter? what about the 4.8 petrol, is it bigger diameter??
i can get the GU3 from nissam for less than $300.

Ptrool endedup with a 4inch stainless pipe one, looked ok, but could have been better. but it worked. if your after a bigger diameter, that would be your best bet.
