    first, you may have already done so, but blick off that tube on the other side of the airbox. you're pulling in unfiltered air.
    second, get a new filter. i like your idea of routing into the box through the side, but since you're pulling the opposite way through that old filter you're just pulling debris right into the engine.
    Look at the pictures correctly and see where the pipe is located. It's before the filter, and the other hole is not blocked. I left it there to have 2 air flow holes and the difference is incredible. Before I had a cone filter & it was not the best idea because, it was still sucking air from the engine compartment. I can tell you that now is making much more power + the engine temperature is less.

        oh okay i see it now. i thought you scrapped the old intake and made your own tube...basically i thought the gray pipe was going to the engine.
        but i see it now. very cool.
