Just how much air will I increase by an aftermarket air filter, Why can't I just remove the snorkel from my 6.0?
Thanks!!

Removing the snorkel is an excellent idea! I actually modded mine to still have a small shroud for the front of the filter element.

I have used my SCT to datalog the intake temps there is a short rise in intake temps only on takeoff. After 15MPH you will be pulling in ambient air temps. Doing the ZOODAD will increase the directed outside air flow to the front of the intake. The thought process that all you will do is suck under hood heated air is not accurate information.
