NEXT-GEN RANGER STAINLESS STEEL SNORKEL & AIRBOX: 2022…
A tightly sealed snorkel and airbox are a no-brainer if you like taking your Ranger off the beaten track. Torqit’s stainless steel snorkel and airbox will protect your engine from dirt and water while boosting airflow for peak performance. Plus, you’ll spend less time on maintenance, and your Ranger will work more efficiently, i.e. use less fuel.
A stainless snorkel makes your Ranger stand out from the crowd and keeps its strength without rusting or warping. Torqit’s 4″ Next-Gen Ranger Snorkel is mandrel bent and fully sealed.
- Optimise engine performance by channelling cooler, cleaner air into the airbox
- Prevent engine wear and damage from driving through dust and water*
- Withstand tough off-roading and harsh temperatures with thick 304-grade stainless steel
- Get 100% accurate installation with a steel fitting template that bolts to the engine bay
Torqit’s Next-Gen Ranger Airbox is much larger than standard, using a filter the same size as the standard 200 Series filter. Because of its size, the airbox includes an integrated stainless steel washer bottle to replace the factory washer bottle. This is the same volume as the stock bottle and uses the original pump, level sensor, and wiring – no cutting needed.
- Get maximum airflow with a large flat-paper filter
- Avoid dusting with an inbuilt clamped rubber seal
- Enjoy fast and easy filter changes with a simple spring hinge, 2-bolt lid
- Prevent warping from heat and water with thick 304-grade stainless steel
Snorkel & Airbox Intake Noise
A stainless snorkel will always be louder than plastic and for us, this is all part of the appeal. With Torqit’s Next-Gen Ranger Snorkel and Airbox, you’ll clearly hear the turbocharger and intake noise. If you’re installing these upgrades on the 2L Next-Gen Ranger, you’ll also hear each turbocharger staging separately and the individual bypass valves.
Finish Options
Stainless Steel
Brushed to a 320-grit finish, our stainless steel option adds a distinctive look to your Ranger build.
Powder Coated
Torqit’s powder-coated option in gloss black complements the colour of aftermarket accessories such as bull bars and roof racks, giving your build a coordinated finish.
SNORKEL & AIRBOX INSTALLATION: NEXT-GEN RANGER
Installing Torqit’s Next-Gen Ranger Snorkel & Airbox will take about four hours. If you’re not an experienced fitter, we recommend getting these upgrades installed at your closest Torqit Dealer.
The snorkel comes with a steel cutting template that has foam backing to protect your Ranger. It bolts straight onto the quarter panel mounting bolts inside the engine bay, so you can guarantee the guard cut is correct.

MORE ABOUT TORQIT’S NEXT-GEN RANGER SNORKEL & AIRBOX…
304 Grade Stainless Steel
The high amount of chromium and nickel in 304-grade steel gives it high strength and rust resistance. A snorkel and airbox must withstand hot temperatures and water, so this heavy-duty steel means maximum durability and a long lifespan. And bonus- it’s easy to look after.
Thick Stainless Steel
Torqit uses steel up to 2mm thick. This thickness keeps the snorkel structurally sound after bending and makes sure the airbox stays rigid to prevent warping and leaking. Regardless of where you drive, thick stainless steel gives you peace of mind against cracking, denting and dusting.
Mandrel Bent Pipe
Torqit’s Mandrel Bender uses a flexible rod to support the snorkel internally and prevent crinkling as it’s bent. This seamless one-piece pipe has no joins, keeping the snorkel rigid and sealed. And with its smooth, even diameter, a mandrel-bent snorkel gives you unrestricted airflow. Check out Torqit’s CNC Bender in action.
Rubber Pinch Weld and Anti-Rust Paint
To protect the guard from rusting, Torqit’s Ranger snorkel comes with OEM-certified paint for applying to the guard cut. A rubber pinch weld gives you a final sealed finish and also helps prevent rust and leaking.
Flat Paper Filter
Torqit’s Ranger Airbox uses a flat paper filter, with a surface area much larger than standard. Designed in Australia, this filter has been tried and tested to make sure it meets all OEM standards and provides max efficiency and airflow.
Integrated Water Drainage Valve
An integrated Donaldson Water Evacuator prevents engine damage by draining out any water which enters the airbox.

*Know your wading depth! While we designed the airbox and snorkel to be watertight, adding these alone does not prevent water from entering/damaging your vehicle in other areas. Please check your vehicle manufacturer’s recommended wading depth before undertaking water crossings.
**Note Torqit’s Next-Gen Ranger Airbox warranty does not cover the aftermarket filter. How often the filter needs replacing will differ according to the vehicle application and conditions in which you drive. The filter in this airbox will likely last longer as it has a much larger surface area than the standard filter.
