Have not tried them yet. Going out to deep snow country (crows nest pass) with Praire Dog. We will give them a good test there. I will post on how we do.

that looks great, nice job. Another thing you can do to keep the snow out, is put on some real skis.
Well went to Crowsnest and the darn rain killed most of our riding truned all the trails to ice and made it too dangerous to sled in the mountains. The filters seemed to work pretty darn good though went through a lot of slush and they kept it outside the engine compartment. I would say at this point anyone wanting to keep the snow out this is the anwser.

Just got back from riding in 3 feet of the good stuff .
I instaled mosquito netting over top of the screens and self adhesive foam tape on the metal nose shield inside the hood, that is where I got most of the snow . works awsome , it was the only sled with no snow under the hood. The netting is not as restrictive as the filter ( I hope ) and cheap.
A cold air intake would be great, it does get pretty warm under the hood when you runn WOT for most of the time in deep wet snow.
And no matter what you do if you have a wheelbarow full of snow on the hood there is no airflow for cool intake air.

I spent $4 on 2 sets of 'black' ladies knee high nylons. Awesome sexy. Anyway, I carefully stretched them over all my hood screens, knotted the ends, cut off the excess with scissors.
Results: Only a small bit of powder in the nose. Excellent.
But they look sexy..... gotta find some red ones too.

Should have used fishnet stockings LOL
Thus far these filters have been working great. I have yet to freeze up my stock intake.
