Couple of my friends in our rid group are having bogging issues on deep powder days when snow piles on the flat intake screens. Is any one making a kit to address this issue.
Bogging/ plugged intake
- Thread starter the fix-it guy
- Start date
I rode this past weekend on one of the deepest days in recent memory - I had a mountain of snow on top of my hood and intakes numerous times and did not have any bog. Very surprising as my G4 turbo suffers intake bog like crazy in the same situation. Are you sure it's intake bog and not exhaust bog? I had my exhaust plugged when coming to a stop which caused a bunch of trouble... but it wasn't due to lack of air IN.
FWIW I have the skidoo upgraded vent kit.

Sled would recover when wiping screens off.
Stock intakes or upgraded skidoo covers?
I believe stock. He did have dealer inspect the flapper, under the hood air is pretty warm when all the vents are covered and iced up.
Strange, never had a Gen 5 bog. Vents are buried all day. They on turbos or NA?
Same, never had a issue other than the operator choking on pow.
I’m going to guess this is an elevation thing by the sounds of it. I ride normally 10,500 and have the same bogging issue on 23 and 24 turbo R’s. The only solution I have found is keeping the left hand free to clear snow.
These are NA sleds, and we are riding above 10,000 when we had issues.
