'01 800 stock- pod filters?

OK, I know this isn't the first time this has been debated but I've about breached my threshold with this stupid airbox. I'd like to move the post forward which I'll try on my own (until that fails and I have to get ahold of Wildchild). My throttle cable crapped out as did the extension. And there's nothing I despise more on this machine than removing the airbox over and over.

That being said, do the pods work alright on this machine? I'll duct in the cold air and block the hot as necessary. They would solve a lot of my headaches while making room for the post and slack for the throttle cable. The local dealer says they've always had jetting issues with this setup.

Thoughts?

I remember years ago asking that everyone said NO. I never did get a good reason why. It seams to me the efi should be able to compensate for the mixture difference the same way it does with altitude change. I'd still like to put some pods on the wife's 600efi but the carb machine has to be done first!
