The snorkel looks like it's placed on the front half of the intake tract - separate from our box - so chances are it should work fine with our intake. With that being said, we did not have that product on the car when we had our intake installed, so we can't officially confirm whether it wil fit or not. Hope this helps!
As far as intakes on Turbocharged cars are concerned I think the first priority should be looks and sound and not power, and that goes double when the stock system is a cold air unit. Quite a few years back we did some testing on a VR4 where we taped up the entire intake filter except for 1 sq inch. Dyno before and after where exactly the same. Same day, Same Temp, Same DYNO. It only took us about 5 minutes to change the intake. We let the car cool off first and then ran it. Exact same HP. On NA cars it can make a difference but you will see marginal if any gains over the stock set-up. Better off putting in a drop in filter and calling it good.

Thanks for your input!
Amplified induction noise is typically derived from using cone filters and a proper box seal, so it's important to pay attention to how the filter shroud/box shields the engine bay heat. The colder the air, the better! These are the steps to take to really getting a great sound out of your intake. And you're certainly right, in boosted applications it makes a big difference because those turbo sounds need to be way more pronounced. So that was definitely a major priority for this project.
Also we actually made a bit of power with this intake! Check out our graph below.
We had fairly consistent gains of 6hp and 10ft-lbs of torque. Keep in mind that this wasn't just one of our best dyno runs. We made pulls until the car produced three consistent plots, which were then averaged. This data will be repeatable since we didn't compare a low run from the stock intake to a high run from our intake.
Hope this helps!
