Thread revival. I feel this topic didn't get enough responses.
Has anyone attempted this sort of modification? I was thinking you cut the "tub" piece off the snorkel and attach a filter with a oval design fitting. Finding the appropriate sized filter could be a challenge. If j.fro can reiterate on what makes the 986 airbox restrictive. I didn't understand clearly. Difficulty in fitting a 987 airbox is the only thing swaying me away from the mod. This could be a nice alternative to the 987 airbox.
