Not a dumb question, shows you're thinking.

An intake would make the low-end response even worse. Opening up the car's breathing system will result in top end gains and low end losses until you get a tune. A tune will tell the car's brain how to compensate for the lack of pressure at low RPM and get you a skosh more power.
