Is it worth while putting on one of these type air filters that stick out of the hood. I know yoevo makes a nice set up but not really interested in going that way.
Boondocker air filter
- Thread starter shadow conspiracy
- Start date
I'm running the BD filter through the hood, I like the setup opens up a lot of space under the hood.

Running both the evo and 2 bd filters out the original intake holes allows you to remove some parts of the hood. Going through the hood is probably cheaper tho
Did you buy a kit of make it yourself?
He had bought one that I had put together. I sold a couple dozen of those set ups in '12 before Evo had theirs made. Works very well, costs a little less but takes a little more time to do so it all works out. I used a 2.5" 45 deg silicone elbow off the stock plastic 90. Doing the BD you will need to extend the crankcase breather line from the elbow that used to plug into the back of the filter. 3/4" hose from the elbow to the blank nipple on the plastic 90, just need to cut the end of it to open it up.
Had one guy that said he had problems with it getting collapsed when snow was heavy and over the windshield. Nobody listened to him thou because he said the snow was over the windshield and he was complaining lol.

Where did you get your silicone elbows from?
I would die for some over the hood snow right about now.:face-icon-small-ton
Get them from vibrant but I would think in the US any performance automotive store like Jegs or Pepboys?

Just look at any place selling intercooler piping supplies you will find what your looking for
BD filter
I'm happy with mine. I still spent $100.00 on my set up. But I like it!

Good looking sled. I think that your sled is the first retro anniversary that I have seen that still has the stock graphics on it. Looks good.

I think those stickers and that can lasted about as long as it took to get home with it

I thought about Blackening it out. I just couldn't do it! I've done lots of work to it and it hauls me and the mail!

Do you think there is any gain using the boondocker set up?
Yes!
It's way up high so that BC pow doesn't sit on the intake when it's waaay over the hood!

I sure hope so because I just ordered one!!!!!!!!!

They work great, gets nice cold air to the sled. The biggest gain tho is not dealing with cats filter design, makes the hood a lot easier to take off and put on. Can also get rid of lots of the plastic under the hood allowing more air flow. Only had my BD filter choke out a couple times, been a good set-up for deep pow days.

A BD filter is a fine option if you are not going to be riding in trees or don't mind cutting a hole in a hood panel. The advantage of the EVO V-flow is that the snowmobile appears stock and pulls air into the sled in the stock air intake locations which have alot filtered intake surface area.
The stock filter is more than a pain!

Cyclops LED has nice lights and rigid industries does too. Cheap is not better in the case of these lights they work awesome. And for BD filter mount it on the Evo cold air intake places them out of harms way and no holes in the hood
