Bob,
	Opening up the airbox might help some, although, as 
Scott(PDQSHIP) pointed out the other day, the tuning of the air 
horn might be worth something.  I want to try it myself.  
Eliminating the warm air feed probably will only reduce 
drivability when cold, but I don't know for sure on this car.
