I am just not a bid fan of the GEN 3 intake.

Requires cutting to make fit. I would getted worried in heavy rains.

But thanks for your observation.

Heat extraction down here might be on option, not sure yet. I'll keep looking around.

Rain is *not* going to be an issue with the Stillen Gen 3 intakes. This has been repeatedly confirmed by Stillen and by those of us who have seen it installed. I was "lucky" enough to get some real-world testing of this recently too: wstar's Journal

Also, the cutting isn't major. It's just slightly enlarging the two holes that already exist for your stock intake, to make them ~5-10% wider so the Gen 3 intake tube can fit through them.
