Okay...
I finally got the writeup in the FAQ section.
F-150 Intake Snorkel Removal
Thanks to all those who contributed. Keep those ideas coming so we can build a nice library of technical documentation.
In regards to the Dyno testing of the snorkel, I've tested both the snorkel mod both with the replacement tube and just the open bellows with nearly identical results in both HP and AFR. This leads me to believe that turbulence that far upstream is not an issue in relation to either efficiency or MAF accuracy. It is certainly more stable than kits like the K&N which moves the MAF sensor mounting location 12" towards the air filter to end up about 6" away. Tell me that's not going to be affected by turbulence. :o
Anyway, given the data I've compiled on the this modification, I'd sooner do this modification rather than spend money on a CAI.

 Windows™ Vista and  Windows™ 8 is a pain in my a$$!
 Windows™ 10 is only slightly less annoying!
 Windows™ 11 is garbage!
