Default River Raider Snorkel Mod

I was concerned about the flexible hose that came with my snorkel, because I figured that it was really restricting the air flow. I called Kenny at River Raider and he sent me out some aluminum tubing and Rubber elbows. Here are some pictures of what I did.

I haven't really noticed a sound difference, but I feel a little more throttle response now.

I have been handing out flyers and cards for him, so I think he charged me his cost. Ended up being around $45 shipped to my door. I took some measurements and he even cut the tubing for me.
