Got An Edge Chassy?
1: unstrap and remove top of airbox
2: Remove trumpet plate and trumpets
3: Pull foam ring off top of airbox
4: Remove trumpet ring from top of airbox (the ring the foam sits around)held in by 3 push pins
5: Glue foam ring back on airbox top with RTV or superglue etc.
6: Put the airbox top back on and strap it down
You've just increased flow without blowing money on a SLP box.
I recomend also geting a powder screen whether to have a stock box or anything else. Polaris or other brand just to keep the water out in high powder conditions. All mountain sleds come with them stock

I like engines n stuff
Anyone can go out and carve around but its the in the woods going uphill, on one ski zigzagin with a leg up in the air givin it all the yank you got just so you can clear the tree beside you knowing your only chance is to stay balls out that parts the men from the groomer chasers.

There are cones in some airboxes. By removing them you actually have made the airbox flow more turbulent. Those cones act like a port on a bass reflex sub box and are designed for a specific harmonic. By removing them the airbox is no longer tuned.
Cause I don't give a rats about who took second or 12th for that matter your just the next loser in a long line of many losers.

Yeah the cones are basicly mufflers for your intake box. Without them you will hear a little more engine noise etc but nothing much. I should have warned that doing this increases air flow which can lean a sled out a hair but most likely not enough to worry about unless you have already leaned yours way down. Keep an eye on your plugs and pistons for a bit to make sure.
Those cones are kinda like stock mufflers on your truck, theyre to keep it quiet not make it run good.

What? No, those are there to use the pressure waves emitting from the motor as the divergent and convergent cones do in the exhaust. AKA to make it run better.
