Just like DCI's it's exposed a bit more to engine bay heat but you still have a mix with the cold air with the stock airbox (with scoops).

Maybe a good alternative for Mr.5 intake and people like me that want to keep the stock airbox look.
Likely negligible plus it's hot air over there. If you already have DCI there is probably little to gain as the restriction is now in the inlets.
