I wouldn't even consider adding a snorkel unless it was absolutely necessary. It would affect you overall performance, and would give yourself a false sense of waterproofness(Is that a word?). Unless you would go through the pains of waterproofing all of your electrical components, and extended all of the breather lines above snorkel height, I wouldn't do it.
As far as performance, think of it this way, would you run a marathon breathing through a straw?
That's about what you would be doing to your engine! So, think before you leap on this one!
IMO
