my point was do you notice the diffence?
without that this is a waste of time for others. I will give you credit you removed fog lights that is commitment

yeah you have a beast and would be curious if it works for you. for me it made a difference in fla. I think this is a hot state thing but if it works in washington then it is a ram air effect. Let me know

My first thoughts on doing this is that you are going to be directing all of those bugs that usuall hit your foglights directly at your air filter. You know how many bugs you kill on a summers night of driving. I'm amazed at how many bugs get killed by the front of my car. You might want to think about using a hose clamp to clamp on a piece of screen, or some kind of filter to stop the bugs from getting through.
Or possibly the screen will just dice up the bugs into smaller bits? Good idea though. I've thought of doing the same type of thing but using the duct for brake cooling. But I do like the lights though.

The screen dices and the tube difuses and you still have an air filter
the box can be cleaned I did the engine bay with a fiberglass air conditioning filter and clamped it on the end to send cool air to the intake tube

I think this is a hot weather mod if ovenmitt noticed something then it is due to ram air effect just waiting on his feedback. I wouldnt' say I was faster just more responsive like during cooler temps.

A while back I started a project like this, I ended up doing something a little different but get fresh air in a similar manner, bugs and debri in the air filter/ engine bay is not that big of a deal,, water making it up to the filter is also no problem and I've got almost 20,000 mi on the set up. Here is a link.
