Fairly went to town on that lol

Just make sure the holes are on the wing side and below the filter. Engine side will cause it to suck in warm air

I've just taken the hot air feed of the back of the air box and feed a cold air pipe to it. Not fitted it yet so don't know if there'll be any improvment.

You do that's why I'm going back to an air box instead of a induction kit. You can also remove the inlet and trumpet on the front of the box. This will give you move induction noise and if you get board of it you can replace it.
