I love the combination of uel headers + snorkel delete. It sounds perfect! But I still wasn't too keen about the airbox intake exposed to the hot engine bay so I chopped it up.
I trimmed it so it extends just out of the engine bay but still near its widest point.



I also borrowed the wife's blow dryer and heated it up to reshaped the squashed end where it enters the airbox.

It turned out pretty well. Hopefully it will be a good comprimise of performance and sound.
Now if I can just find the link for that stage 2 map (hint)!
