Yeah, go ahead and punch some 2-3" holes in it all the way around. A K&N filter helps out the top end a bit... Probably not much though. Saab had a larger metering plate on some 99's that measured 3" across. Good luck finding one, as I dont think they were ever imported to the states. I have one on my car, and it made a big improvement. Big. That, and a nice header and free flow exhaust will do a lot to improve the breathing of your 99.
The holes in the air box will put you in a compromising situation if you are ever faced with driving through one and one half feet of water as Thorir described. Fortunately, I am not faced with that likelyhood. Good Luck.
