I considered doing similar earlier but decided against it.
Yeah seems i'll just stick to the standard single pipe sticking out cheers for all the info!

As far as the plastic screws on that cover are concerned try using a small flat screwdriver (a jewellers screwdriver is best) and gently prize up under the head of the screw as you unscrew it. I'm pretty sure you'll find they have a plastic clip in base that they screw into, when you refit them the plastic screw should be unscrewed all the way so the base part fits back in the hole then the just press in the screw with your thumb, they usually make a clicking sound as you press them in.
Finally got it, i was trying to ply it up with a flathead and it just wouldn't come up, managed to get the flathead under the entire screw with the clip bit and force it up there, so lifted up what i could of the cover and yeah, got it out went for a little drive to kinglake to see the difference, there's something there but not much, can't wait for the new intake!
