    I'm sorry but you add a hot air intake to your car. Your engines air-box has a pipe that connects it to air outside of the engine compartment. This set up you just made will grab air from inside the engine compartment. Warmer air is less dense than cold air and the engine compartment is way hotter than the outside temp. You need to fit a new box around your new air filter. This will protect it from heat and dirt, the box needs to be connected to air outside of the engine compartment. You may want to look into a air- ram setup or maybe a hood scoop. Don't try to build your own hood scoop unless you really know what your doing, I would just buy a new hood online.

    colder air on a turbocharged car is a completely pointless concept, when your air enters the turbo is when it gets hot, there is not point trying to make it cooler before the turbo. you could make the air colder after the turbo with a better intercooler

    Alfred- just delete your whole pcv system. Get a pcv delete and take out your pcv valve. Your pcv valve increases blowby and you burn more oil if you don't regularly maintain. Block the port of your air intake with a vacuum block in place of breather tube.

But no I don't believe it will raise your rate. HOWEVER, should something happen to your engine because of the aftermarket part, unless the part is under warranty you will be paying for that engine.

    Won't work that well, because fresh air coming in is blocked by the battery. There will be a dead spot there. It's also quite close to the engine itself which is radiating loads of heat. Unfortunately many cars just aren't suitable for this kind of filter, not without a lot of work to move things around.

    you changed the cold air that was sucked beneeth the car (at speed) and changed it with hot air produced by the engine. If you do this, DO NOT let the filter dangling above the engine, get some proper tubing and route it somwhere cold air comes in. 2/10 of a job.
