Thread: Mantec v safari snorkel

Yep, I do agree with those reasons Which is the reason I went that way. I think those triton gaurds are rubbish though, a friend did the same, or rather his mrs did and the safari lives on!!

But if I put my hand over the top and seal it the engine revs don't change do to think this means it's sucking air somewhere else?

Check the flexible connection from the air box to the inside of the guard. Recently had to change mine , the cloth like cover over the wire insides had deteriorated, and had been sucked into the air box, ending up on the underside of the air filter. Don't listen to the nay sayers, nothing wrong with the Mantec. Good enough for the G4, good enough for me. Bob

Guess the main differences are that the Mantec is more internal than the Safari.
Personally I prefer the Safari, but other than that I don't think there's much between them.
