Not sure if there would be any real benefit to this either. Just from my research short ram intakes or whatever you want to call them don't have any real gains and are prone to hear soak more so than the stock air boxes.
i have short rams with no heat sheilds unlike your K&N typhoons and i do not have any problems with heat soak unless im sitting in traffic and honestly im sitting in traffic, i could care less if im making 10 less whp over stock because there is no where you can use it

when i am driving, i am intaking air about 10-20F above ambient and that is exactly what the stock boxes intake

you will have gains though from the extra flow and i dont know what ID your intakes are but if they are bigger than 2.34in in the MAF section, you are definitely making more power over stock when moving because you are running leaner than stock
