My M601 came from the desert in Egypt and had an external air cleaner mounted to the right fender. I think servicing was one reason and to get cooler air as well. This is also a common modification here for 4x4's touring/working in desert country. Probably same reason big diesel trucks use them as well. Apart from that, what about using an inter-cooler ahead of the radiator?
