I would not run this type of intake. A ton of water gets splashed off the front tires and up the fire wall. You would be sucking air from the same area that water rush's onto your feet through the firewall.

JWolf, I just got a 2021 and am looking to do the same thing. I don't think the previous poster knows what you are talking about. Were you able to identify the type of hose to use... ? I too see several videos showing/mentioning it but haven't found any specifics about what hose to get. Thanks for you help.

It's a radiator hose. Pretty sure NAPA sells it. @Bad_bowtie don't you run one of these?

I found another thread listing this part
Gates-20968-Coolant-Hose, although someone commented that it didn't seem to fit

This is what I used. Very tight fit. Required stretching using channel locks in reverse. Used a heat gun to make the rubber a little pliable. In the end it worked for me.
I don't know why I don't have a finished picture of it installed :/ I have a fuse box added too under the hood. I will try to get a picture of it tomorrow.

Are you adding a second battery? There's plenty of room to add a fuse panel without removing your air box.

Wow, looks like the next poster is schoolin you on vehicle design.
Probably a bunch of onlookers have no idea who the hacks are and who is an experienced vehicle design expert.
Sorry for the diversion but this was too funny to pass up.

If running this i would look to some sort of pre filter and splash guard todds not wrong i constantly had water marks running down that hose into the intake. I switched to the the through the hood set up because of it. We still have another machine in our group running this with no trouble but that machine rarely sees enough water to worry about.

Sorry for the mess. It's still a work in progress. I have a TrueAM isolator for the full size deep cell marine battery under my driver seat. This is the fuse block I used bolted to the main battery strap
I don't know if I would recommend it. I am getting surface rust on the screws. I am not sure if blue seas would be a better bet.
I have alot more electrical to run and then I hope to go back thru and "wire harness" all of my add-ons.
I do not have a pre filter yet but I would like to get one.

Maybe it wasn't clear but a significant amount of water is carried up the back side of the front tires and splashes up the fire wall. Having the air intake tucked under the back side of the dash is creating a direct path for water to flow and splash into the intake.
I still wouldn't run the radiator hose but others have tried it.
@lee I don't blame you for finding that to be funny.
