Has anybody vented the exhaust side of the sidewinder like you do on the clutch side or does to much air flow on that side create a problem, Thanks Kurt

Have the moflow vent kit on mine. Both side panels have the rear 2 large vents. Clutch side I have the additional front panel frogzskin covered vent. You will never create and air flow issue from "too" much venting. Vent away!

I will post some pictures when I get a chance. New phone since winter so all my photos are in the old one. Will have to transfer them when I get some wifi.
I installed the 6-piece set from Moflow with prefilter on both left and right side. Nice kit - much needed if you do alot of boondocking in deep snow.

Venting wont help much with the IATs. The intercooler is too small, and when youre running 16-17 psi, that turbo is breathing fire.

Ohyea. Thier vent kits are top notch. Ran a bunch on my Nytro. I will prob add some to the clutch side on my sidewinder too. It can’t hurt right

Yes,thats what I figured to,sure it will help cool the belt,like said,when I just run normal,belt temps are just warm around 140-150 on my gun,but if I was running high speed beds,now that's another story lolOhyea.
