That snorkel is a really fast way to kill a lot of horsepower due to airflow restriction.

A tacticool fad for the wannabe off roaders. .

At this time, is Fiat benefiting from transfer of Jeep technology to their non-US based products, or is Jeep suffering from the transfer of Fiat technology to them.
