I too am undecided on these , I like the look though I don't really need one
Voted Yes anyway!! My confidence has been writing cheques that my abilities can't cash for years. |

As mentioned, you need to be aware. (Which you may already be.)
Of the differences in a RAI and a Snorkel. I am biased, but I like a Snorkel but a RAI seems pretty pointless to me with or without intended use. ⭐️⭐️God Bless the USA 🇬🇧🇺🇸 ⭐️⭐️ |

It's a mixed bag, I am the same, sometimes I like the look them then sometimes I don't and they kind of seem old fashioned

Fit a decent one and it will improve the breathing of the engine and performance considerably.

The Nakatanenga system in my picture above includes an induction pipe of the same diameter as the exterior pipe to complete the run to the airbox. As Steve says, with judicious cutting of the "performance inhibitor" from the inside of the airbox, the difference is surprising.
The growl from the intake under acceleration is also very satisfying! |

If it's purely for the look then I'm a definite NO. All I can see is wood burning stove!
