    Hi Adam,

    Nice work on the GQ mate. Welcome aboard.

    Can you post a few pics of the airbox setup to your snorkel please. Im keen to see what others have done.

    Cheers,

    Just about to jump into my next Patrol. A 2001 GU II TB45E .

    WARNING!: Do not ever use a towball as a recovery point. They are not rated and can become a deadly projectile during a recovery if they snap off, and they have done so with tragic results in the past.

    Thanks Here's my setup, I'm using the original precleaner in conjunction with the snorkel kit. (Ironman snorkel kit for vertical precleaner)

    Thanks for that Adam. It looks like Im going to have to replace my airbox (Running an RD28T) Safari make a kit for the air box of my GQ but the air has to do a 180 deg turn to get into the air box so im thinking this would be a huge restriction.

    Thinking I could replace it with the airbox from a VR or VS commodore.

    Cheers,

    Rob

    Yeah thats proberly the cheapest option. My precleaner is pretty restrictive but it works and i get an awsome power output. If i had some cash i would go for a ZD30 airbox but the cheapest i can find is $150
