Breathe new life into your sled with the Zone Eight Performance "Backcountry Breather" Underhood Fresh Air Intake, engineered to deliver clean, cool air directly into your intake system for maximum performance in deep snow and high-elevation riding.
At high elevations, thin air robs your engine of horsepower and throttle response. The Zone Eight Backcountry Breather combats this by drawing in fresh air from outside the engine compartment, helping your sled maintain stronger power output, snappier throttle response, and improved consistency in changing snow conditions.
Crafted from durable, temperature & UV resistant materials, this vent system is built to handle impacts and allows flexibility and toughness suitable for the demanding, real-world riding. This vent features a rigid, precision-fit frame and robust mesh filter that keeps snow and debris out of the engine while ensuring maximum airflow in. Its sleek, low-profile design adds a clean, professional look to your underhood setup.
Key Benefits:
High-Elevation Power: Supplies a steady stream of fresh, cold air to reduce horsepower loss caused by thin mountain air while also allowing underhood breathability during those deep, over the bars, powder days.
Improved Airflow & Engine Response: Keeps intake temperatures lower for better performance and reliability.
Easy Installation: Installs in minutes using the factory air intake mounting points while also allowing for quick removal by utilizing the included OEM style push-rivet fasteners.
Clean, Durable Design: Lightweight construction with a rugged mesh filter that resists clogging while maintaining airflow.
OEM-Quality Fit: Designed specifically for Polaris 800, 850, and 9R NA models for a tight, professional finish.
Whether you’re climbing steep backcountry ridges, tackling the tightest treelines, or carving through the deepest powder, the Zone Eight Performance "Backcountry Breather" Fresh Air Intake ensures your sled breathes freely and performs at its peak—no matter the elevation.
