Cutting holes in the airbox will most likely reduce pressure loss in the intake system, but it will also lead to hot air being sucked in. That's something we don't want. You could however cut a hole or two and add intake pipes from those to some good locations, e.g., under the headlights (make sure there is positive pressure there first).
You could also build a costum airbox form sheet metal or plastic.
One more approach would be to cut the big holes in the airbox and then create some kind of screening to block the engine heat from entering the airbox.
I'd probably choose the first approach as it is easy and will not have any bad side effects if done properly. I actually think I'm gonna have to go try this on my 900 :o)
Best regards,
TJ
