I've been having issues while I'm riding with my intake on my turbo icing up and getting covered in snow. What are you turbo guys doing to try to prevent this problem?
 

do you have a rear mount? do you have a 90 degree elbow if so? with the elbow you can easily kick it or wipe it off quickly whenever you stop. it has been extremely cold around here lately as you know so it is kinda hard to totally avoid.
 
I am having the same problem with my mcx rear mount. Are you running the single k&n with pre filter? Thats what mine is and I just ordered a new cr billet intake. It is just a cone with a pre filter over it and is way bigger than the k&n and has a lot more surface area. It should hopefully be here within the next couple days, i will let you know if it works or not.
 
I have the same intake that comes with the mix kit. It's a cage with a prefilter.

And jugger I have yet to even ride my sled here in ND but ya its been cold as F*** here lately tired of it. But I've been in the mountains 3 times this month lol only home to work the way it seams. The weather hasn't been bad up there 20s-30s but constantly freezing up I just bought 2 more pre filters so I can change them throughout the day. I thought maybe someone had something they used to spray on the filter to bead the water off or something. Idk i have a 90 on I have it cut low because I kept kicking the filter and dented the cage so I figured I should cut it lower lol.
 
You need the 90 degree snorkel.
With the Stock setup it's always icing up when there's powder conditions and Cold weather.
