I'm thinking the hose positioned correctly would make a big difference to the results.
There was a little silicon hose which goes on the end of the housing but I didn't bother because it just goes straight down about 10cm, didn't really see the point in it.

I think we'd be better off trying to make up our own airbox out of aluminium and our own intake snorkel to go into it, then you could choose which filter to go into it etc.
