Answer
Your induction kit should help performan
ce some. yes, directing cold air to the air filter will improve things - as opposed to it picking up air already warmed by the hot engine. most kits shield the air filter from the warm air and direct cold air towards it - you could probably make something to do this with some aluminum flashing and duct tape -
build a 3 sided box around the air filter with the opening towards fresh air intake. after you get the desired effect then remake it out of heavier aluminum or fiberglass.
