If the intake didn't sit in the engine bay like that and actually had an element filter right at our side vent and smooth mandrel bent tubing going to the TB than maybe it'll help.
Where are you getting the idea that the EVO doesn't go to the side intake? The pipe that runs from the EVO to the TB is stock. The EVO comes with a cone filter, small metal pipe to attach the MAF, and a surround that prevents hot air from the engine being taken in. All air comes from the outside.
