Question Snorkel users

Putting the cool factor aside--has anyone noticed a real difference in their air filter after installing a snorkel? Does it cut down on dust ingestion, or is it all hype?

less dust, no water going into my intake anymore, and i actually did notice a little bit of difference in mpg/power.

I bought mine out of neccessity since I was wheeling in a lot of deep water, I kept taking in too much water and killing my mass air flow sensor.

Thank you! I now have a reason to get a snorkle and my wife can't argue that one... yeah but honey it will save on gas... and at $2.84 that's a good thing!
