Default Another Intake thought

I have been thinking of doing this for a while. Having the MAF right after the TB then running the intake tube straight out then go down through the fan shroud (cut a hole so the fan shroud still serves its purpose of course) inbetween the fan and radiator. Then the intake continuse through the lower portion of the fan shroud and then the K&N Filter stops right in front of the opening in the air dam. Haven't checked how much room is inbetween the fan and radiator yet but I think there is plenty of room to pull it off. I have included a hand drawn pic so you could see what I'm talking about. Sorry for the crappy artistic ability I didn't exactly accel in art class.
