Dan, are you providing a kit to modify the deck-lid bracket (you know the part I mean, not sure the correct name) and a snorkel, or just a different filter cover. Got more details?

So can the 2nd snorkel be added at a later date to the carbon box, or do you have to order a carbon box that is made for the 2nd snorkel from the start?

Available for both the current AP box and the future carbon fiber one?

Got an idea on pricing yet?

I added a 2nd snorkel to the Agency power airbox and measured air intake temp with the Brockway R920 and at cruising speed temperatures dropped with 3° celcius (37.4 fhar.)

Dan, Dixie, are your 2nd snorkel designs somehow draining out water from that entrance directly above the filter.

37 degrees? drop in air intake temps? just due to adding another snorkel? you may want to do your test again.

3 deg celcius drop is what I understood, I think his conversion was to what 3 deg is in F, not the drop! The drop is more like 5.4 deg F (0 celcius in 32F right?).

Example of temperature drop with second snorkel:
Outside temp was 10 degrees celcius
Intake temperature with 1 snorkel was 20 degrees celcius
Intake temperature with adding second snorkel was 17 degrees celcius
