Freezing Pod on MCXpress Nytro

[vipertonytro]

Anyone else haveing troubles freezing off there air pod on an MCXpress turboed Nytro in Fresh powder? Was thinking of wrapping the rear shield between the center divider & left hand plastic shroud with nylon material that can be just knocked off. Did this years ago on the windshield to cowl of a Viper with cold air kit,Worked fine but that was up high not in the snow dust from the track. Any suggestions or ideas? Someone else must have had this problem. Would also like to modify Exhaust like Darko has suggested.I think the heat from the Exhaust helps to freeze off the air inlet,because that side of the sled sure collects snow & Ice.

these are known, and fixed, problems on the Apex, but didn't think it was a problem on the Nytro... Darko's under tunnel exhaust will probably fix it, orelse you might considier getting the air filter furter out the back and away from parts that melt snow?

Thanks I'll try the exhaust first. Dont really like there large muffler anyhow.
If it still is a problem I might have to invent something different for the intake.

yeah id try youre exhaust first . Having my exhaust dump under the tunnel made a world of driffrence on the amount of ice that built up on the rear of the sled . Another route u may want to try and is the exhaust turn out to the side .A guy i ride with did that to pack a gas can and it seemed to reduce the snow build up on the rear of the sled , athough im not sure if that would work with the mcx kit .
