    Anyone know what it is? I want to grab a second one and mod it for better air intake.

    I don't know what it is but that's a good idea maybe we can get one of the more exp people to give us some direction on how to make it push more air through.
    I for one, love the M15x for its custom self.

    It's simple it increase the flow. You just need to drill holes in the grooves along the front of the machine. I just don't want to do it to the original because it would void my warranty.
