not it wouldnt..... it moves the intake higher where less dust is therefor less dust is picked up by the filter.

I get that, but a good filter will stop anything from getting through. A snorkel kit is like $400 not counting install. A filter cost ~$40 and last ~30k miles and is going to be replaced regardless of whether you have a snorkel or not. It may mean you replace the filter less often but I have a hard time thinking you'll come out ahead by getting a snorkel installed.
