Stainless steel vs plastic snorkels

Hey guys what do you prefer stainless or plastic snorkels and why? Reason asking is bit stuck on what would be better for my disco

Stainless tube snorkels go with leaf springs in my opinion. Plastic Safari for the Disco.

So more plastic for the plastic fantastic

I'm with Slunnie, leave the ss snorkels for the bootifab nissanyota drivers.

The induction noise with the window down and a aluminium snorkel solidly mounted to the windscreen frame is nearly as loud as the exhaust

So plastic for less noise

Well if I make a custom jobby id hate to be making it out of plastic.....

I would have to say that my metal snorkel seems to increase the induction noise... but it does sound cool

Could that be because it flows better than plastic?

Not such an issues using PVC plumbing pipe - does enhance the look of an Asian 4wd.
