If not, it may be a standard modifer reducing speed by say 20% for all subs when using the snort. That would be hard to find and fix.

In the real world, a snorkel should not be used at any speed above a 1/3 bell... or 7 knots, as LukeFF suggested.. because dynamic water pressure will damage or destroy it.. it's just a big, hollow tube after all...
The same should apply to periscopes, to a limited degree, as well... due to their smaller diameter, they can withstand higher speeds... but, I don't think they could be used at a flank bell or at speeds above 8 or 9 knots..
