or keep the drop in. I have the K&N open air filter. It is exposed to the engine heat much more so than the stock air box (as restrictive as that is). I have a fan on the front (engine side) of my intercooler, and I believe that helps, as it blows straight onto the filter.
I tried making my own Ram Air system for it (NACA duct mounted on the bottom of the car), but that did not work as well as planned. It was good for 1 psi of boost. Not worth the effort!
The best thing to do (which is a lot of work!) is to cut out part of the inner fender and to place the filter between the two fender walls. See Jouko's site for an example (pictures!). ;)
OR: weld a NACA duct into the hood just above the open element filter.
For you, I'd recommend the drop in.
