Got the pipe on Friday and installed it.....got word today that the VDI was shipped and will be here on Monday...once i get it installed and calibrated i will report with the gains. HMF says 3 1/2 with there pipe and VDI says 3 to 4 so it should be a very noticeable gain...can't wait to find out.

my last couple of trips i got into deeper mud than expected.im a little worried i might get into trouble some day so ive been looking at snorkels.I found a kit from yasky atv for 289.this includes mounts for the front rack and three snorkels.seems expensive for pvc pipe.on another note,i tried to download pics of my quads tonight but i think i need admin approval.can you take care of this or is it someone elses department?

I wouldn't pay that kind of money you can make a snorkle much cheaper than that

Bill my guess is that your picts are too large in file size. Use www.irfanview.com or another program to resize them and try again.
