Joe Z has the intake tube that goes into stock air box which connects direclty to front intake and resovles this problem.if not wait for the f sport intake to come out. Looks good but just some food for thought

Basically when modding your car, you agree to "pay to play".

As far as parameters go.. not to worry. Aftermarket intakes don't do much, if anything, on a car like this. In many cases, they actually reduce power and response while creating a bunch of noise.
