ram air ?

this may be a stupid question, but i see all these folks doing everything they can to improve airflow into the engine - desnorkeling, dremmeling all the seams smooth, new air filters, more direct intake piping, larger throttle bodies, more aerodynamic intake plenums, etc.; what about just shoving more air in there? fabricate a replacement side vent that grabs more air? most other mid-engined cars (lotus, lambo) reach out and get it - why not the boxster?

otherwise, half the side vent is obstructed with those plastic vanes; any benefit to removing them? that should double airflow right there, no?
