Fits the Toyota Hilux Vigo & Fortuner 2005 – 2015
Why fit a snorkel?
A snorkel is a valuable addition to your 4×4 vehicle for several reasons. Primarily designed to protect your engine from water and dust infiltration, a snorkel extends the air intake point of your vehicle to a higher position on the vehicle’s body, typically near the roof. Here’s why a snorkel is a significant benefit for your 4×4:
1. Water Crossing Confidence: When traversing deep water crossings or fording rivers, a snorkel allows your 4×4 to breathe without the risk of water entering the engine. This prevents hydrolock, a potentially catastrophic condition where water enters the engine cylinders, causing severe damage.
2. Dust and Debris Mitigation: When off-roading in dry, dusty conditions, a snorkel helps keep your engine’s air supply cleaner. By drawing air from a higher and cleaner location, it reduces the chances of clogged air filters and engine damage due to dust and debris ingestion.
3. Enhanced Engine Performance: With a steady supply of clean, cool air from a snorkel, your engine can operate more efficiently. This can result in improved horsepower, torque, and fuel efficiency, especially in challenging off-road conditions.
4. Extended Engine Lifespan: Protecting your engine from water, dust, and other contaminants can significantly extend its lifespan, reducing the need for costly repairs or replacements over time.
5. Versatility: Snorkels are not just practical; they also enhance the rugged appearance of your 4×4, adding to its overall aesthetic appeal.
In summary, a snorkel is an essential accessory for any serious off-roader. It ensures your 4×4 can handle water crossings and dusty trails with confidence while simultaneously improving engine performance and longevity.
The kit comes complete with all the screws, brackets, pipes and a template which you will need to fit the snorkel.
