it's not just air temperature that is important - it's the pressure drop through the airbox.
I get a pretty significant pressure drop over 6000rpm with the stock airbox - about 10-15kpa. The temperature with the open filter was only higher when sitting still, otherwise it was about the same.
anyway, I still got tired of the cone filter - it sounds badass, but it gets dirty really fast, it looks kind of stupid, and there were some really odd harmonics with mine at part throttle that drove me insane. I took the 10hp cut and put the stock airbox back on.
