On a NA car, and using the Apex I intake, you think this setup would gain more HP than the standard CAI?

put it this way eric.....
i ran my intake exactly like that with a k&n air filter

yo DO notice a difference
no you wont' be getting a good deal of positive pressure but what you will be doing is eleminating the vaccum to make it about 0

just stick your hand out the window having your intake completely sealed and funneling from the front of the car does help and improve performance.......

i've done it once and i'm doing it again and i won't go back to the short ram BS or the lets keep my CAI filter inside the engine bay?

go with the design you have and you'll notice
