I'd love to get a Sy-Klone, but they're priced out of my budget at this time![]()
I suspect you added that picture as a clue to the source but I can't seem to locate it on that website. I cry "uncle" - help please?

It's a China clone of the original 70 series snorkel head I picked up on Ebay.
When I bought my snorkel, the seller added it for an extra $15 bucks.

Although no one makes a snorkel for my Outback, Safari was nice enough to work with me to find the closest fit.
Do I need it? Probably not. Does it provide a nice high location for cold air intake, contribute to the start of many amiable conversations, and allow me to cross a few streams in VT and CA that I otherwise might have chosen to drive the long way around? Abso-freakin-lutley!![]()
As anyone can tell, my little Superu is a lesson in functional overkill. It does everything I ask of it and I smile every time I walk up to it! Isn't that what it's all about? :smiley_drive:

The Superu
I've debated with myself immensely about a snorkel. However my situation is slightly different, living and working on a dusty farm and ranch in eastern oregon during harvest there have been times when i have to clean or replace my filter WEEKLY due to the dusty farm conditions. I agree most people dont waterproof things. Most tractors we use have snorkels with a cyclone type head on them and they are all for dust and work well. Just an opinion and a thought...
I was watching the newscast and they were showing a lady in Honda CRV driving down the road, headlight deep in water. Wonder how far she got before hearing funny sounds from the engine.
Its ok! the engine has a snorkle!
