I have a 2010 m8 sno pro and this year especially i have been experiencing a bog when the snow is real deep and turning or sidehilling on exhaust side. Will kill the motor if I don't turn out soon enough. Ive done the research and seen others with this issue and cured it with tunnel dump exhaust but since no one makes one anymore what are my options?
10 M8 Deep powder exhaust bog
- Thread starter durangorider
- Start date
I had this problem when I put a full SLP kit on my 09. The can outlet was a little longer than my previous one, so it stuck past the stock deflector in the shock tower. I just bent some sheet aluminum and riveted it to the stock deflector to extend it and that fixed my problem. Could get a pic of it later if you'd like.
Ok this is what I was thinking of doing just didn't know if it would help. Or how far it needed to extend. Thanks
Deep powder pipes
In 05 I worked at a Cat dealership and all we sold was King Cats for deep powder riding. What we did was add another pipe to the top of the can and port it out @ the body inset for the front suspension. Worked very well, should work with any body style.

I did the same a few years ago on my 10. Melted the panel down near the bottom cause exhaust was not escaping soon enough. Maybe mine was more flexible.
My theory is the skis prob kick snow up toward the exhaust outlet. My buddy who was running tunnel skis said he never had a bog running same powder. Simmons I believe.
Speedwerx tunnel dump muffler and done with it
I've searched and Cannot find one new or used.

Place them on the intake tube attached to your hood...close to the accordion hose. Don't put them on the airbox in the nose of the sled (I made this mistake and it hurt throttle response). That is the budget solution.
I ultimately installed a SLP high flow intake, which did improve the throttle response and does, IMO, provide the 2HP gain as advertised. It has the flow-rights, or frog skins, built into the intake so when you get over the hood snow and block the intake at the dash, you can get air through those...stopped a lot of bogging issues for me. http://www.startinglineproducts.com/catalog.cfm?pageID=detail&catalogID=2&productID=980
