No. The snorkel has no effect on filtration. The only reason the snorkel exists is to reduce intake roar (at the expense of air flow). Effectively it is just an intake silencer.

I did with mine and I beleave it does make a difference,the trick is to drill e'm the right size not any old how,so as and when you can reverse the procedure with rubber grommets if you want to.

This mod is used only if you don't use the DNA 2nd stage filter.

Remember you will need to adjust the fuel injection richer, using a power commander or the Kev Fueling Mod, to get the best result.

should the snorkel be left in or removed with this set up.

Would like to know this aswell.

Plan is to have: Both Stage 1 & 2 DNA Filters

So no holes right? Snorkel removed I would GUESS, but is it correct?

Thanks!

Snorkle should be removed with any after market DNA or K&N Filters.

If you go to stage 1+2 then no need to drill holes in airbox and snorkel is removed..

I'm going to hoover the dust/dirt off the filter itself, and I'm also thinking of applying some of that protective oil I've got from my open air K&N car filter?

Any thoughts chaps/lasses???

Oil can get into the airfilterbox if you are doing wheelies :P
