looks really clean dude.
looks like your blue connector on the rats nest is disconnected.
also the snorkle can be ditched, right? or does it still have purpose? i dont know.
all i know is that my air filter gets hot (i cut a big *** square hole in the air filter cover to let the car breathe better, but i think it is know injesting hot under-hood air)

believe it or not the stock airbox had a ram air style of induction, the inlet is in a high pressure zone at the front of the car, leaving that snorkel on there feeds cool air onto the open element cone filter. a headlight ram air style would be better though.

The stock duct will basically be doing jack ****.
