Tim at the track loose the air filter. But keep the elbow.
You can even install a short section of 4" tubing to pull air from where your filter is now.

way back we had a customer take 4" flex tubing and route from the turbo to where the headlight was. Worked well. No hot air into the turbo.

This is what I did for mine for track use. I think it made a big difference.

But for DD, I'd find the biggest fitter you can fit and put it in the corner behind the headlight.
