You need a snorkel so you can fit in with the overlanders on this forum... ahem, @Itaro @4runner DOAuh, my inner fenders aren't really fenders. its a bit, open.

bad lolHow bad was the shipping? I'm thinking about a new hood to replace mine that has too many dents
so bad I'm going to see if I can will call one.bad lol
like this? it has everything. turd gen, overloaded overlander, dorkle...You need a snorkel so you can fit in with the overlanders on this forum... ahem, @Itaro @4runner DOA

My snorkel is for the dust
It's not solved by doing a snorkle. The heat soaked intake tube and UMP body is heating the air. Infrared readings werenthr same on the intake tube as the valve covers. Will probably get some insulation and ducting.#minetoo except it also pulls cooler air than the engine bay.
Cowl induction works pretty well also. Unless the hood is vented then you are sucking the hit air in that escapes the hoodIt's not solved by doing a snorkle.

into the intake. my issue is once the air is inside the UMP/tube, it warms up with the heat soaked UMP and intake toob.#minetoo except it also pulls cooler air than the engine bay.
this is what I'll probably do but will need to insulate and put in some shielding/box it in.Cowl induction works pretty well also. Unless the hood is vented then you are sucking the hit air in that escapes the hood
Definitely see the need for that with all that wonderful aluminumthis is what I'll probably do but will need to insulate and put in some shielding/box it in.
to get the coldest/cleanest air possible. the stock location on the inner fender is shit. There's a thread over on TW about this mod. Lets you use stock filter/intake.What is the point of routing the air intake to the cowl area? There will be more questions and perhaps comments to follow.
Do you think you would be following some one where an intake in the grill would be too dirty? If so wouldn't the air be dirty every where? I agree the wheel well would always be dirty. I just don't see how the air around the cowl area would be any cleaner. Perhaps just route to a hole in the hood directly above UMP intake. Where is Harry routing the intake on the "81Trekker"?to get the coldest/cleanest air possible. the stock location on the inner fender is shit. There's a thread over on TW about this mod.

I think the reason you don’t want it in the grill is the dirt and rain has a direct path into the intake, whereas if it’s behind something like the fender or hood, the heavier particles are falling while only the finer dust makes it into the intake.Do you think you would be following some one where an intake in the grill would be too dirty?

I think rain would be a non issue especially if the opening had a bit of shield. As far as dust goes was that not the point of going with the UMP and its volume and filtering capacity. I don't believe Kasnerd has any intention of racing. No requirement to follow closely behind someone. Most of any dust created should be behind him.I think the reason you don’t want it in the grill is the dirt and rain has a direct path into the intake, whereas if it’s behind something like the fender or hood, the heavier particles are falling while only the finer dust makes it into the intake.
