I'm not entirely sure that just going with the current throttle body measurement covers all the bases.
Consider this - and I'm just flapping at the gums here - assume you have a really large shop with a 2" pipe running all the way around the shop. this 2" pipe is attached to a shop vac at one end, and closed off at the other end. Along the pipe are several ports which are usually closed off unless you are using the sawdust producing tool at that port.
I have been told, and I believe it to be reputable, that you would have greater suction at the tool station closest to the shopvac, than you would at the station furthest from the shopvac. My simple mind can't figure out why this is but apparently it is. I think the solution in the shop example is to have a smaller diameter tube at the furthest from the shop vac.
So relating this to the engine (which creates vacuum like a shopvac), maybe it would be more efficient to have a throttle body sized tube nearer the throttle body, and decreasing in diamter as you get closer to the intake above the windshield......??
Having said all that, I do see that the snorkel manufacturers do use a consistent diameter tube for the whole thing...
I don't know, that's why I'm throwing it out there...
