How did this intake solution work for you? Looks like you simply relocated the intake location which is the real problem here IMO.. Im looking to relocate mine as well to behind the rear window.
You have several options and anything is far superior to the stock snorkel.
Doesnt it make sense to put a catch can on that breather tube that feeds into the airbox? Does anyone know of someone selling a kit to do so?
No, not needed if you keep your filter clean.

I consistently wind mine up full throttle for hours at the dunes and have never had oil in my filter in 5,000 miles.

One of my problems fixed, a few more to go!

All of a sudden my talon started blowing smoke and about a quart ran out of the airbox when I opened it.
Was it rolled over at any time ? Possible air intake filter is clogged up , and check the crank breather tube for blockage

Technically that's exactly what you did to fix it, except you had to throw a ton of money in engine parts at it between the "turn it off" and "turn it back on" phase. 🤣
It’s similar to the radiator cap fix.

remove cap, replace car, reinstall cap.

fixed!!!!! 😁😂
