Air intake back missing

Haven't really explored the engine bay before but...
I'm pretty sure something's missing here.

^ nope - thats the way its designed. Looks a bit odd though i agree.

That's how they look. I think it's so that the water falls out.

"Others" have closed it or restricted it & claim the car goes better.

Definitely shows the need for an air intake filter.

It's alsmo massive, with the APR Carbonio being basically half the size.

That too I guess.

Air falls out too.

i actually prefer the stock intake, it feeds air into the engine area (right above gearbox). most if not, all aftermarket air intakes channel all air into the engine (for more power of course) and sacrifices any cooling (albeit minimal) above the gearbox area.

i saw max oil temp 120 degrees with stock intake vs 125 degrees with aftermarket intake, yet i did faster lap times with stock intake
