I have harnesses so I may end up doing a custom job. Can anyone tell me how many joints and what degree were used? I wonder how much I'll even save since this kit includes the vent hoses?

Finished installing a "Snorkel Your ATV" kit on my P2-700 with a full Honda hard cab. Had to drill twice into the cab with a hole saw but that turned out good. Good instructions--I even painted the stainless hose clamps flat black to make the install less noticeable. Nice complete kit at a reasonable price. I think the engine breathes easier but I have no proof of that. I also replaced the Honda hose clamp that is next to the airbox with a wider 2" stainless clamp as the Honda clamp might be a weak point for the entire intake system. Took it out for a test drive and I think it is a bit faster on throttle response. I am using the intake tip that has a screen in it for now. The other tip provided without the screen might even make throttle response better yet but I will start with the screened version. I also am using the K&N air filter with the pre-filter screen.

Where did you direct the intake tip? Did you go through the top of the Hard Back next to the glass?

Thanks,

Yes. Went through next to the window glass and directed the tip down so rain will not easily get in there. Then used black silicone to seal it up.

I ended up doing a custom snorkel. I took my factory seat belts out so I didn't have to go around them. What I did was go to Home Depot and purchased some 2" PVC. I then bought several elbows, used what I needed and returned the rest. I also bought a rubber coupling which I used to connect the PVC to where I made the cut on the factory intake.

Pretty sure I used 7/16 inch rubber vent tube. I also bought the variety pack of connectors at Advanced Auto.

You guys have mentioned a few times about "cutting". From what I have read on the Snorkel your ATV web site you should not have to make any cuts. As a matter of fact my biggest concern is voiding my warranty. I just bought a 2017 700 2 deluxe with a 5 year warranty and it even addresses it on their sight by saying "easy bolt on kit that is easily removed for warranty work". I dont want to cut anything!!! If she breaks for any unforseen reason i can jerk the snorkel off, make her back stock and bring it in!

Any pics @LandPioneer ? I also have 4 point harness's. Im thinking coustim buit snorkel also. Im think i may heat the pipe at the seatbelt area to flatten it a bit. Not sure i like the way all the kits i have seen stuck out in that area.

Not the best picture but you can see the top of it. Let me know and I'll take some more if you'd like.

I have the "Snorkel you ATV" on my 700-2. You have to cut the breather box off. Call them and ask them to send you the directions. I'm positive you will have to make a cut.

I like the "Snorkel your ATV" snorkel. However, they sent 30 feet of 1/4" tubing. The differential vents are smaller. I bought some 4mm tubing. Also, I bought a tee and joined the fan vent to the front differential rather than running both of them separate.

That's a great idea. Thanks for the info!

Same here... I ended up connecting the diffs and fan to the same tube. I then ran the gas tank separate and put a little filter on both lines.

I have purchased this kit from "snorkel your atv"... I have not installed yet as I was waiting till I did my "1st service" at the dealership, but now that that is done, I'm ready to install. I like the looks of the parts and yes the vent tubing is supplied, but you WILL have to buy some reducers for the diff vent tubes as they are a smaller size than the tube supplied, or as I did, buy some "T's" with so you can run multiple lines into one.
My only concern is the one previously mentioned about the tube being in the way on the passenger side. When I do mine I will put it together and make sure I like how it fits and make adjustments or modifications before cutting the OEM intake and/or any seatbelt modifications.
When I do it , I will post pics..

View attachment 51815 Im gone try and install my snorkel tomorrow, but I did something with my oem intake that I haven't seen yet. I made a cut right behind the third baffle and sanded smooth. Makes it a little easier since all you got to do is connect a 2 inch fernco And go from there. I'll try and post pictures later once the install is compete.

PS: I don't plan on doing any water crossing or creek riding but I do want to get cleaner air to my engine.

Did you do it this way so you can mount the up tube outside the cab?
