I had an idea for snorkeling my king and wanted to run it by yall to see what you think. The idea is to run one pipe out above the handle bars. This one pipe would be for the belt intake, and the belt exuast would be ran to the airbox. I didnt know thats why I want yalls opinion on this, good or bad lets hear your thoughts.

If you are going to run the belt exhaust into airbox, this is a very bad idea. The belt dust created from the normal wear on the belt will be drawn into the airbox, there is quite a bit of dust created. Just one thing to think about!

I don't think it would work well. IMO
Because the intake on the motor requires a differant amount of air flow depending on your throttle position.
And the belt housing has alot of resistance in it wich would affect your proformance.
You could probably do this for a one time use only.
In addition to that the motor will work better with cool air coming in it instead of hot.
From what I've seen the CVT can get pretty hot on the discharge.
I also agree with King-quadder

You also don't want the hot belt exhaust going into your airbox either. The cooler the air intake the better you are.

I know you are talking about the CVT exhaust but I have my CVT intake running into the air intake box and then my snorkels run out the top of the box and it runs fine.
