Good old fashioned engineering.

Personally I feel that the O/E filter is very restrictive as it was originally designed for the 2.0 KV6 in the Rover 45. It's location is a perfect heat soak and unfortunatly I doubt your solution will avoid this much.

However my mate who built "the mental maestro" as featured on a pre Clarkson topgear had a similar arrangment on his car which worked well.

It would be interesting to see what inlet temps you are running, my scangauge shows my setup runs about 5' above ambiant.
