I write: The staggered heights also result in a wider power band since 4 cylinders are tuned for (slightly) higher RPM power (short stacks) and the longer ones tuned to (slightly) lower RPM power.

Back to the question at hand: If r_turner could figure out a means to get only cold air to the intake (filters) this would prevent the engine from digesting warm/hot air from the engine bay. Something like an air box big enough for both intake cone filters to be enclosed (with adequate spacing around all components) would work well
