Hey Jacob, love your vids!! I’m about to do the same to my raptor, but unsure about how to angle the intake, noise wise... I love the noise but is it annoying when sitting on the freeway or any other time? I’m thinking about angling it over the roof a bit but I still want to hear it lol.. thoughts??

Well done Jacob! Sounds amazing also along with looking awesome! How long did it take you? Thinking of doing my wildtrak..

Brian it’s just one of those things when working on a car.... you’re going to have to make holes eventually. It’s just easier for me because I do it on the daily with brand new cars of the show room floor

Hi! nice video, I watch all your videos about Ford ranger Raptor because I woud like to buy one. I'm from Italy and I woud ask you if you could make a video about how replace rotors brakes and pads. Thank you.

does the raptor ORIGINAL airbox is ready for snorkel or do you have to sort out aftermarket/customize airbox? and what bolt is best suited for the Support pillar of the snorkel the one you have to drill in the pillar side? RIVET or the screw that comes with the snorkel? got a snorkel installed on my Triton and we used the screws that comes with it for the pillar BUT after a year it got loose and was so damn LOUD when my triton is on idle that i have to return it to the shop and they used a Rivet this time. My concern is what happens if that occurs again this time what should i do?

Dude that was awesome. Are you going for a river crossing or something?

@jacobsgarage5458

J CHEN yes you can set it in the menu but after owning a mustang it’s automatic for me to lock it with the door handle so I’ve never tested it

Now that you replaced the air box, it is possible to change the size of that reservoir behind it something smaller and then move the airbox farther back, then install a second battery, or will there still not be enough room?

Great job mate but no way would I have the guts to drill into the guard like that let alone cut a hole like that in it. Just one thing I would like to have cleared up about snorkels. I have heard that some snorkels can rob a car (4WD) of power at high speed because the snorkel is facing backwards can create a vacuum while driving at high speed (Highway Etc) and starve the engine of air and that's why some have a head on them facing forwards to scoop up air at high speed. Is there any truth in that. Looking at how this one is setup on the Raptor I thought it would create a vacuum at high speed and starve the engine of air.

@jacobsgarage5458

4 жыл бұрын

Robert Garland the amount of speed you would need to be driving at to show any noticeable difference in power loss i.e more that 1hp loss you would need to be at a speed that raptors can’t even reach. The free airflow way outways the possible loss from a negative pressure situation. I prefer rear facing snorkels because they suck up less dust, bugs and water and also allow branches to glance off instead of getting caught and breaking the snorkel
