150 Snorkel and 1500 RPM problem

Does anyone have a Snorkel fitted yet?
If yes is the 1500 RPM threshold still a problem?
I do not have a snorkel yet.
At my service this week (10000 @ 14890KMS)( I also handed the Toyota person the printed PradoPoint info on the 1500 thing in case he said he'd not heard of it) the Mechanic put on the HANDBRAKE AND THE FOOTBRAKE AND REVVED CAR TO 1500.
Another Mechanic then pressed the Drivers side guard at the top and the noise dissapated slightly.
The Toyota Service person would like to know whether anyone who has a snorkel are noticing a difference?

TJM airtec on my d4d and I still have it, it can get annoying as it seems if my wife drives the car she can make it sit on that rpm almost always...

I know what you mean but its I whom sits on that Revs.
I do like to drive by the ECO light but around town getting 9.2-9.4 Ltrs/100.
On highway down to 7.5 but goes up quick smart at the first sign of a hill or traffic lights.
I must say its a bit better since the service.
