I already have a suburb 2.5 that was recently professionally rebuilt.? I read small cars clutch could be problematic but the article was old.? Just want to start with solid parts but have to order

Routing the ducting up the pillar is no problem. As you mentioned, the tough part is working around the A/C lines. It is a tight fit and I believe I had to bend the mounting bracket just slightly to

I have found the Bostig Kit (2000-2004 Ford Focus base) good: lots of them out there for next to nothing, and Jim Akiba is so good at answering any questions not covered in his online manual: that

I’ve ordered the Smallcar intake with snorkel. Was it difficult to get it mounted up the column? ?Also I’m a bit concerned because I have AC hoses and wiring back there in my Westy. Hope it will

Great idea. -- Warren 89 Westy 88 Tintop 70 Westy

If you need a round shape you can use a heatgun and a wood bar with the desired diameter et voila ! Lots of BMW bikers and myself did this on their intake pipe in order to get a good breathe on their

I'm using the Small Car setup ( https://smallcar.com/vanagon-performance-air-intake-kit-for-subarus-and-other-engine-swaps/ ) which includes provisions to run their included ducting up the driver's

No, I now have the “snorkel” routed all the way up the pillar to the roof line, basically.

I’m done with warm air intake and dust clogged air filters. I have forged a river that was deeper than expected and I won’t stress about that anymore. Three cheers for VL! P.S., I won the snorkel

Great, fact based evidence from out west ( we know dirt and dust ;-)? ) ! So now, with your SC filter setup,? do you have to clean out allot of dirt ? ?- Sean G

I live in Colorado and generally hadn’t had too many problems with regular filter replacement/maintenance. I took one trip to Moab and the K&N-style cone setup I had was absolutely *caked* in fine

I agree, this probably more true here.?However we are not running the DAKAR or BAJA. I believe we are all recreational folks here. Not professional driver running dirt race circuits... and my

In my 15 + yrs of driving dirt rds out in AZ, CA, CO... I have only changed my filter once. Never experienced a dust bowl in my filter and intake area. I should mention I have a RMW Airbox setup.?-

Remember before the engine swaps ?? . the little clear plastic dust trap just before the VW air filter Box ?? after driving dirt roads & beaches, especially if behind another vehicle) it always felt

I think when most people mention the snorkel it is not in the true sense of the word, for the purpose of fording a river. Personally, I just wanted something that would get the intake up and away from

IMHO you dont need a snorkel unless you’re going to be driving through creeks deeper the 18-24 inches. Even if its snowmelt then you could crack your heads. SeanG 87 Syncro , 2000 Subie 3.5
